Summary: | The text attempts an anthropological reflection on the theme of shelter. Starting fromthe current war in Ukraine and its literary and visual representations through themigration crisis and back to the Second World War, the author analyzes images andvisual testimonies of examples of hideouts, shelters, ephemeral homes. At the center ofthe considerations lies the category of “survival” as crucial for wartime and refugee bioandnecropolitics. “Survival” appears here in a dynamic relationship with the visible andthe invisible, as well as through the prism of two types of history: the imperial, officialone and the one belonging to the powerless, the insignificant, the deprived of visibility,the half-dead. |
