Abstract
This paper seeks to map the lived experiences of those displaced by climate change, focusing on the embodiment of landscapes. Places such as land and temporary shelters are the site of embodied memory, creating intersubjective spheres between insiders and outsiders. I take Myanmar’s devastating Cyclone Nargis in 2008 as a case study. Drawing on observations from fieldwork in Myanmar, this paper shows that the researcher’s and cyclone survivors’ perceptions and sensory experiences of landscapes are critical to understanding the survivors’ everyday lives and producing knowledge about their experiences of the cyclone.
