crisis that awaits being noticed. I think that in
both of these stories, there is an underlying
theme that death has the final say in our lives,
and that there is not really much that we can do
about it. In learning that our time will come, we
tend to look at things, especially our lives, in
different ways. In Ecclesiastes, the major

in the working place as an alienated labour. To
