To Know Death / To Know About death.
#7
Ah, but I would say you have a better standpoint on the argument, considering the context of the English language. Like you say:

I know of something, which is to say I have had personal contact and understanding.

I know about death, which is to say that I know about death, and lack the aforementioned personal level of understanding.

This may be a bit basic, but I would liken t to being book smart vs. street smart. Or intelligence vs. common sense.
