Espaces du quotidien et dynamiques de l’altérité pendant le confinement

Abstract

This study is the first result of the research entitled "Mon Espace Vécu" (My Lived Space) conducted in Italy during the first lockdown of 2020 (March-June), which was imposed by the government to contain the Covid-19 pandemic. During that period, the authors collected hundreds of textual testimonies from volunteers experiencing everyday spaces during the pandemic. The reflection, conducted from the perspective of cultural geography and cultural anthropology, develops from the analysis of some of these testimonies. Specifically, this paper focuses on the forms of semantization of space and the relationship between the body, space, and dynamic identity/otherness.
