When facing the death of close people, it is natural that one can express such feelings as grief. When it comes to the concept of death associated with the notion of mortality, people express such feelings as anxiety and fear. In a socio-cultural context, death has always been associated with moral, religious, and ethical concerns because of representing dying as a ritual of the person leaving “this world”. From a medical point of view, the death of a human body signifies the cessation of functioning of all human organs (Lella & Pawluch 1988). Despite these different ways of treating death, the medical sphere acknowledges the linkage of scientific and humanistic visions on a dying person because they can be applied to patient care as well (Jesani 2004). At the same time, there is no such thing as death with dignity because it relies on a social construct of perceiving the human body and, as a result, the concept of the dignified and undignified should be considered with regard to objectified perceptions. At this point, biomedical, technocratic, and humanistic conceptions should be considered in more detail to understand the issue. From a cultural and historical perspective, the image of human dying and death is often associated with tradition and ritual because a dead person was often associated with the specific values, emotions, and experiences (Moller 1990). A human body, therefore, is a socialized object. Perceiving death as a social construct arises specific images, contexts, and values preventing medical professionals from treating cadavers from a scientific point of view. However, in the absence of rituals and social context, death is nothing more than a physiological condition of a human body. According to Armstrong & Blute (2010), “the philosophy of science for long remained curiously immune to this “scientific” of what was once exclusively philosophical topics” (p. 432). As a result, the concept of death is stereotypically perceived as an inherent part of the sociological theory of the human body. A close correlation between the philosophy of sciences has had a potent impact on the development of science as a part of sociological studies considering the body attributed to such concepts as the self. The false perception of the concept of death attached to dignity largely correlates with historical evidence, highlighting the rigorous opposition to the anatomy as a science. Synthesis of social and religious concepts in the 19 th century created a rigid opposition to develop separate views on the concept of death from a medical point of view (Lella & Pawluch 1988, p. 140). To prove the idea, Ozcinar (2011) remarks “mind-body, soul-body is discussed together with the problem of human, which is the basic problem of philosophy, what human being is and what kind of a world people live in” (214). At the same time, the author refers to the human body representation as a physiological organism possessing tools to achieve goals (Ozcinar, 2011). Such a dualism explains the controversies arisen around the concept and nature of death, which is seen both as a transition of a soul-body to another life and as the termination of mechanism functioning. The modern social theories representing the human body reveal attractive and aesthetical ideas. At this point, Shilling reveals an idea that “is a receptor, rather than a generator, or social meanings” (p. 62). As a result, the concept of death is also represented through the prism of socialized views on the process of human dying, which prevents from perceiving this action as a biol
