Abstract
- Since de Middle Ages, the fear of being burried alive besets the conscience of many countries in Europe. From its humanistic and philantropical perspective, the XVIII century, yearned by such a misfortune, faced this extremely difficult problem. Initiated in The Netherlands, a large movement of solidarity towards the victims of accidents such as drowned or suffocated people, spread all over Europe. Desperate efforts were made to uphold the victims alive that contributed to successfully rescue a huge number of human beings.<br />Desde la Edad Media, el temor de ser enterrado vivo obsesionó la conciencia de muchos países europeos. El siglo XVIII, de espíritu humanista y filantrópico, conmovido por tan desgraciada suerte, se enfrentó con aquel problema de extrema gravedad. A ejemplo de Holanda, nació por toda Europa un gran movimiento de solidaridad a favor de los ahogados y asfixiados, se desplegaron ingentes esfuerzos para volverlos a la vida, y con indudable éxito, pues se salvó así una infinidad de personas.
