Romanian philosopher Emil Michel Cioran (1911-1995) who has written most of his works in French is a name having interesting and unique perspectives/views regarding various topics among the 20th century philosophers. It would not be wrong to note that he has a silent but serious reader/follower audience, considering that most of his books were translated into Turkish. When the topics that Cioran addressed are examined, it is possible to reach many contexts such as relation with God, the world of thought, discussions on nihilism, history and utopia, “The Trouble with being born” written by his passion for music and finally death and suicide. Likewise, the aim of the study is to focus on the ideas of “death” and “suicide” with its deficiencies and defects as much as possible. Before we especially touch upon the idea of death in Cioran, we have to express the unbearable and even untenable dimension of having been born in his terms.
