TRANSSCALAR CRITIQUE
Climate, Blackness, Crisis
di IVRY HENRY
Editore: EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY PRESS
EAN: 9781399506465
ISBN: 1399506463
Pagine: 288
Formato: Hardback
The history of the contemporary is a history of crisis – most centrally, the twinned crises of environmental destruction and anti-Black violence. Transscalar Critique argues that contemporary Black literature navigates this crisis by taking a transscalar approach, understanding crisis as working on multiple scales simultaneously, from the molecular to the geological, from the economic to the aesthetic. As a consequence, this book proposes transscalar critique as a mode of literary criticism. Organized around specific crises and authors, Transscalar Critique argues that crisis offers a window into how competing analytical, artistic, and planetary frameworks collide. In a moment of crisis, questions of race, geology, politics, epistemology, and ontology are brought into focus in surprising and unexpected ways and Transscalar Critique uses the literary, critical, and public policy responses to these events to reveal connections between the human and nonhuman worlds.
