520 On Aging, the first of Jean Amery's books after At the
Mind's Limits, is a powerful and profound work on the
process of aging and the limited but real defenses
available to those experiencing the process. Each essay
covers a set of issues about growing old. "Existence and
the Passage of Time" focuses on the way aging makes the
old progressively see time as the essence of their
existence. "Stranger to Oneself" is a meditation on the
ways the aging are alienated from themselves. "The Look of
Others" treats social aging - the realization that it is
no longer possible to live according to one's potential or
possibilities. "Not to Understand the World Anymore" deals
with the loss of the ability to understand new
developments in the arts and in the changing values of
society. The fifth essay, "To Live with Dying," argues
that everyone compromises with death in old age (the time
in life when we feel the death that is in us). Here
Amery's intention, as encapsulated by John D. Barlow,
becomes most clear: "to disturb easy and cheap compromises
and to urge his readers to their own individual acts of
defiance and acceptance."
