摘要

前几章为各种关于生存意义的主张辩护。本章通过将这些主张应用于一个新的主题：个人不朽，来检验它们的步伐。我首先用坚持和生存之间的区别来阐明个人不朽的概念。然后，我展示了在前几章中辩护的主张如何使我们能够阻止对可取性和永生可能性的常见反对意见。这里有两个例子。第四章Selfer观点是错误的，这一结论在我对Tedium异议的答复中发挥了重要作用。我对数字同一性方面的“为什么”问题的回答提供了资源，可以证明生存中重要的东西不会随着时间的推移和变化而慢慢“消失”。

The Hope of Glory

Previous chapters defend a variety of claims about what matters in survival. This chapter puts those claims through their paces by applying them to a new topic: personal immortality. I begin by using the distinction between persistence and survival to clarify the idea of personal immortality. I then show how claims defended in earlier chapters allow us to block familiar objections to the desirability and to the possibility of immortality. Here are two examples. Chapter 4’s conclusion that the Selfer view is false plays an important role in my reply to the Tedium Objection. And my answer to the Why Question in terms of numerical identity provides the resources to argue that what matters in survival will not slowly ‘fade out’ over time and change.

期刊介绍： Work on self and identity has a special place in the study of human nature, as self-concerns are arguably at the center of individuals" striving for well-being and for making sense of one"s life. Life goals develop and are influenced by one"s view of what one is like, the way one would ideally like to be (or would like to avoid being), as well as one"s perceptions of what is feasible. Furthermore, conceptions of self and the world affect how one"s progress towards these goals is monitored, evaluated, redirected, re-evaluated, and pursued again. Thus, the “self” as a construct has far-reaching implications for behavior, self-esteem, motivation, experience of emotions and the world more broadly, and hence for interpersonal relationships, society, and culture.
