Abstract:This study explored death discourse literacy practice by examining speakers" narratives and audience"s feedback in living will promotion events. "Death discourse literacy" (Luo & Gao, 2023) and "narrative positioning" (Bamberg, 1997) were adopted as the theoretical frameworks and "theme-oriented discourse analysis"(Sarangi, 2010) as the analytical framework. The data consisted of three living will promotion speeches targeting university students, hospice care volunteers, and retirement home residents. The analysis of the speakers"storiesrevealed different distributions of decision-making power among doctors, patients, and family members, multiplepower andsolidarity relationsbetween the speakers and audience, and challenges to the macro discourse of tradition. Through such narrative positioning, the speakers constructed relevantknowledge and positive attitudes towards planning end-of-life medical decisions and asserting one"s autonomyaboutlifethrough living will. The audience gained a certain knowledge of living will, with some taking immediate (discourse) actions; some expressed skepticism aboutthe legal effectiveness of living will, while others held a negative or evadingattitude toward the issue. Through interactions between the speakers and their audience, death discourse literacy waspracticed and enhanced.
