Abstract

AbstractThis speculative meditation on homelessness takes as its starting point media photos of apartments in the Ukraine whose walls have been shot away by Russian artillery barrages or bombing raids. It suggests that these images of homelessness prompt us to address larger issues of being at home in the world. Beginning with twentieth-century meditations from Germanophone philosophy, proceeding via several Antipodean examples, and culminating with perspectives from the Global South, the essay urges us to turn our gaze towards modes of open-ended homeliness in the world that are vital for our ongoing habitation of the ‘environmental niche’ that is planet Earth.
