This study analyzes the “sick-lit” narrative phenomenon, a story writing genre rooted in self-harm and suicide, which seems to be gaining remarkable popularity amongst adolescents. This success is a symptom of young people’s need to address the issue of death. The qualitative research was composed of two parts: the first explored the ambivalent representation of sick-lit on the internet, where two opposing factions argue about its educative usefulness vs. its potentially dangerous copycat effect. The second part investigated six novels and their representations of self-harm, death, sufferance and suicide. The analysis confuted the idea that sick-lit may be a positive instrument for making adolescents aware of mortality and showed the need to transform the Werther risk effect into the Papageno possibility by exploring the content of these books with adolescents in death education courses.

This article discusses the role of parents in death education through exposure to death in the broader environment and in the context of Kashubian (a Baltic west-Slavic tribe) death rites. Home education seems to be significant, considering the critical situations embedded in every life. Understanding the reality of death is a lifelong process, thus, education about death should start early, avoiding didactic discourse and misleading concepts. The objective of this paper is to present children as competent forgers of meaning while participating in death rites, so gaining a better understanding of finality.
