Abstract
The text analyses various forms of love in the Warsaw ghetto – caritas (agape), filia (dilectio), eros (amor), and asylum (refugium) – all of which are characteristic of peak experiences. Basing on the example of personal notes and post-war testimonies, the author describes various examples of these four types of love.
