Kletti, Roy; Noyes, Russell, Jr. – Essence: Issues in the Study of Ageing, Dying, and Death, 1981
Translates Oskar Pfister's 1930 article proposing that persons faced with extreme danger exclude reality from their perceptions and lapse into pleasurable fantasies that constitute a form of psychic protection against the threat of death. Notes that depersonalization takes place and prevents the conscious experience of fear. (Author/RC)
