anthro_age-495	Marshall, Robert C.	Book Review: Being Dead Otherwise	2023	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1870	109	58	“The dead in an era without family (ｲｴ亡き時代の死者) (ie naki jidai no shisha)” (18), are very largely the elderly found long after they have died lonely deaths unclaimed and uncared for by any family member, but also increasing numbers of foresightful singletons who know they can expect no support at the end of life from family members. Throughout these chapters, the author tries to answer the following questions: what happens to those people who die disconnected from family (Chapters 1 and 2); how are death and its prospect handled where there is no expectation of family to make these arrangements (Chapter 3 and 4); and how is ritual – the one constant requirement for the eternality of a life within or without a family – refashioned against the backdrop of these socio-demographic changes (Chapter 5 and 6).	cache/anthro_age-495.pdf	txt/anthro_age-495.txt
