The difficulty in accepting death is a constant that transcends differences of time and place. The literature shows that the dying is often subjected to invasive procedures with significant consequences on individual wellbeing and public health. If death is hard to accept even for the practitioners, what happens in the broader population? What narratives surround the end of life? The study focuses on the Italian context and its transformations, the public's understanding of palliative care, and the television programs dealing with hospice and palliative care aired by the Italian public broadcasting company from the 1950s to the present day.
接受死亡的困难是一个跨越时间和地点的永恒存在。文献表明，临终者经常接受具有重大个体健康和公共卫生影响的侵入性程序。如果连从业者都难以接受死亡，那么更广泛的人群会怎样呢？生命末期的叙事又是什么？本研究聚焦于意大利背景及其变革、公众对姑息治疗的理解，以及自 20 世纪 50 年代至今意大利公共广播公司播出的有关临终关怀和姑息治疗的电视节目。
