The Rebirth of Death: continuing relationships with the dead
2007
In an article in the Times of London, Elizabeth Heyert (2006) asks, “Are
they so distant from us, the dead? It is easier, certainly, to keep them at one
remove, but in the end it can’t be done. ey are us, the dead, they are what
we will be, and that’s all there is to it.” ese words warn us rather sharply
that however we may think of death, there is no way for us to avoid it; and
whether we look for them or not, the dead are there to remind us that one
day we will all be members of their society.
