The author applies the modern and popular perspective of sociology of everyday life to the memory of Holocaust. She argues that after the years of painstaking research into the Holocaust, the full picture of the period slowly emerges. Dozens of important books have been published, many important taboos have been exorcised, and recently the search for “white spots on the map” requires more and more effort. Currently, it is employment of the micro-perspective that seems the most fruitful. The author argues that the problem of escapes from the ghetto and finding hideouts on the Aryan side still constitutes to some degree “a white spot”. She therefore analyses the testimonies of survivors and witnesses in order to create a comprehensive description of Jewish hiding places as a sui generis living space. The author also raises the subject of commemorating this aspect of the Jews’ war experience in Poland.
