Here is the rephrased text:
Most cultures and societies have their own customs and traditions when it comes to dealing with the deceased. In the past, there have been instances where burials deviated from traditional practices. The reasons for such unusual burial practices can be attributed to various factors, including epidemics or wars, premature births, unique social status, or disability. Authors have compiled a collection of cases that explore the issue of unusual deaths, burials, and ways to remember the deceased. These chapters delve into theoretical perspectives related to social memory of death and the memorialization of the deceased and their resting places during the modern period. The case studies present diverse viewpoints on the concept of "otherness" that are evident in burial customs and memorialization practices.
