Abstract

Abstract In this article, I examine the complications to funerary rituals caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, I consider the breakdowns of normal systems of community food provisions to bereaved families, while reflecting on both the creativity of populations to create new ritual activities and the lingering effects of being unable to complete expected rituals. Beginning with the death of my father in the early days of the pandemic, I go on to trace the ways in which food provisioning to the bereaved changed alongside developments in understandings of the virus. These changes are contrasted with my previous experiences of food as abundant in funerary situations, in order to draw out the ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic caused a major disruption in how care for bereaved persons is expressed.

反思：（不是）在冠状病毒肆虐的时候喂养死者

摘要在这篇文章中，我研究了新冠肺炎疫情导致的葬礼仪式并发症。具体而言，我考虑了向丧亲家庭提供社区食物的正常系统的崩溃，同时反思了人们创造新的仪式活动的创造力，以及无法完成预期仪式的挥之不去的影响。从我父亲在疫情初期去世开始，我继续追踪向死者提供食物的方式，以及对病毒理解的发展。这些变化与我之前在葬礼上吃得丰富的食物形成了对比，以揭示新冠肺炎疫情对丧亲者护理的表达方式造成重大干扰的方式。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
