| dc.description.abstract | In this article, we highlight how COVID-19 has transformed, is transforming and may transform into the future human intimacies. This, we argue, is an appropriate focus for anthropological investigation particularly. We posit a scaler approach to the anthropological study of the transformation of intimacy in COVID-19, embracing multiple levels from human relations with microbes through to human relations with deities. Furthermore, we off er examples of the overlaps between the ways in which intimate relationships at small and large scales are conceptualised, especially metaphorically. | |
