Searching for the Anthropocene: A Journey into the Environmental Humanities

Christopher Schaberg

4.9/5 (27231 ratings)

Description:This book is a search for the elusive concept of the Anthropocene-the current geologic era defined by human impact on the planet-a concept that is embedding itself ever deeper into the humanities and across disciplines.Searching for the Anthropocene follows a journey through an eclectic range of topics, literary texts, places, and events to examine how we relate to and write about our environment. We live in a time of rampant consumerism and irresponsible disregard for the natural world. Still, we strive to find authentic interactions, something to counter the feeling of looming doom in which humans are inherently implicated, often searching for these in literature and art. The debates around the Anthropocene are in one sense an effort to reveal and work through some of these tensions.Developing a wide-angle approach to environmental studies, and blending personal narrative, cultural criticism, and environmental thought, Searching for the Anthropocene offers fresh ways to ponder literature and the humanities side-by-side with current conditions of ecological urgency, existential crisis, and social unrest.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
