    Romantic Revelations shows that the nonhuman is fundamental to Romanticism’s political responses to climatic catastrophes. Exploring what he calls "post-apocalyptic Romanticism," Chris Washington intervenes in the critical conversation that has long defined Romanticism as an apocalyptic field. "Apocalypse" means "the revelation of a perfected world," which sees Romanticism’s back-to-nature environmentalism as a return to paradise and peace on earth. Romantic Revelations, however, demonstrates that the destructive climate change events of 1816, "the year without a summer," changed Romantic thinking about the environment and the end of the world. Their post-apocalyptic visions correlate to the beginning of the Anthropocene, the time when humans initiated the possible extinction of their own species and potentially the earth. Rather than constructing paradises where humans are reborn or human existence ends, the later Romantics are interested in how to survive in the ashes after great social and climatic global disasters. Romantic Revelations argues that Percy Shelley, Mary Shelley, Lord Byron, John Clare, and Jane Austen sketch out a post-apocalyptic world that, in contrast to the sunnier Romantic narratives, is paradoxically the vision that offers us hope. In thinking through life after disaster, Washington contends that these authors craft an optimistic vision of the future that leads to a new politics

    How has our relation to energy changed over time? What differences do particular energy sources make to human values, politics, and imagination? How have transitions from one energy source to another—from wood to coal, or from oil to solar to whatever comes next—transformed culture and society? What are the implications of uneven access to energy in the past, present, and future? Which concepts and theories clarify our relation to energy, and which just get in the way? Fueling Culture offers a compendium of keywords written by scholars and practitioners from around the world and across the humanities and social sciences. These keywords offer new ways of thinking about energy as both the source and the limit of how we inhabit culture, with the aim of opening up new ways of understanding the seemingly irresolvable contradictions of dependence upon unsustainable energy forms.Fueling Culture brings together writing that is risk-taking and interdisciplinary, drawing on insights from literary and cultural studies, environmental history and ecocriticism, political economy and political ecology, postcolonial and globalization studies, and materialisms old and new.Keywords in this volume include: Aboriginal, Accumulation, Addiction, Affect, America, Animal, Anthropocene, Architecture, Arctic, Automobile, Boom, Canada, Catastrophe, Change, Charcoal, China, Coal, Community, Corporation, Crisis, Dams, Demand, Detritus, Disaster, Ecology, Electricity, Embodiment, Ethics, Evolution, Exhaust, Fallout, Fiction, Fracking, Future, Gender, Green, Grids, Guilt, Identity, Image, Infrastructure, Innervation, Kerosene, Lebenskraft, Limits, Media, Metabolism, Middle East, Nature, Necessity, Networks, Nigeria, Nuclear, Petroviolence, Photography, Pipelines, Plastics, Renewable, Resilience, Risk, Roads, Rubber, Rural, Russia, Servers, Shame, Solar, Spill, Spiritual, Statistics, Surveillance, Sustainability, Tallow, Texas, Textiles, Utopia, Venezuela, Whaling, Wood, Work For a full list of keywords in and contributors to this volume, please go to: ow.ly/4mZZxV

    In the last two hundred years, the earth has increasingly become the private property of a few classes, races, transnational corporations, and nations. Repeated claims about the "tragedy of the commons" and the "crisis of capitalism" have done little to explain this concentration of land, encourage solution-building to solve resource depletion, or address our current socio-ecological crisis. The Commons in an Age of Uncertainty presents a new explanation, vision, and action plan based on the idea of commoning the land. The book argues that by commoning the land, rather than privatising it, we can develop the foundation for prosperity without destructive growth and address both local and global challenges. Making the land the most fundamental priority of all commons does not only give hope, it also opens the doors to a new world in which economy, environment, and society are decolonised and liberated

    In sharply original readings of Mary Wollstonecraft, William Godwin, William Wordsworth, Lord Byron, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, Disastrous Subjectivities explores modernity's failed promise to bring about a just social order. Drawing on Kantian critical philosophy and Lacanian theory, this book traverses aspects of the history of science, the form of the novel, the limits of historicism, and the impasses of moral autonomy. What passes for modernity takes shape not as truly modern or secular, but as a mode perpetually haunted by a traumatic sublime. The demand to realize justice within history turns out to require more than history can make possible, and more than the subject can bear

    «This work highlights the need for a holistic approach to the confounding issues confronting the region, confronting our age. In reminding us of the many vulnerabilities and vitalities of Oceanian communities and island worlds, it shows the potential for dialogue between disciplines and consilience between academic scholarship and local community understandings. The collection’s clarion call for a new ‘ecosystem of knowledge’ is utterly timely.» (Alexander Mawyer, Director, Center for Pacific Islands Studies, University of Hawai‘i) «This work breaks the barriers imposed by language and distinctive intellectual traditions in presenting a wide-ranging selection of current work from the South Pacific in the humanities, social and natural sciences. Of particular significance is the fact that Francophone as well as Anglophone scholars are represented. This gathering of minds, a meritorious initiative of the University of French Polynesia, is an invitation to ‘think the Pacific’ in the vein of pioneer Oceanian intellectuals like Epeli Hau’ofa and Jean-Marie Tjibaou.» (Eric Waddell, Adjunct Professor, Université Laval, and Chercheur invité, Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD), Nouméa) This work, an initiative of the University of French Polynesia, Tahiti, showcases research collaboration between small island universities in the Pacific. It addresses a number of «big issues» for Oceania which are also big issues for the world, concerning the biosphere and human society, sustainable development and well-being. The authors seek to create an ecosystem of knowledge through a dialogue, in English and French, between the natural sciences, the social sciences and the humanities. The work also brings into perspective academic and traditional knowledge, with a view to enhancing cultural and agricultural practices and the development of public policy. Climate change, environmental degradation and food security are key questions for survival. How can the preservation of cultural heritage, the transmission of native languages and the integration of traditional knowledge into formal education contribute to a harmonious future? How is the phenomenon of violence relevant to an understanding of history, interpersonal relations and social inclusiveness, including for women in the political sphere? The Tongan-Fijian writer Epeli Hau’ofa described Oceania imaginatively as a «Sea of Islands». This volume sees Pacific islands as being interconnected in ways beyond imagining, in which nowhere is remote, where the peripheral has become a decentred centre.

    Mental health has become a growing concern in today's society, with schools emerging as focal points for addressing this topic. The present volume takes this as a starting point to explore the relevance of curricula and competencies, texts and materials, (digital) culture and communication, and teacher education in the context of mental health and English language education. This, for instance, includes insights into interrelated topics such as gender, climate change, stress, and conspiracy theories. A variety of texts including multimodal novels, video games, and songs provides practical impulses for integrating mental health related topics into English lessons. As such, this volume brings together scholars from various fields who discuss the relationship between mental health issues and English as a foreign language learning from a variety of theoretical, empirical, and practice-oriented perspectives

    Der Band ist den existenziellen Turbulenzen gewidmet, die dem Menschen nicht als katastrophales Ereignis widerfahren, sondern seinen unentrinnbaren Alltag formen. Egal ob Verschiebungen im universitären Selbstverständnis (Vinken), Umgang mit geschlechtlicher Abweichung (Ungelenk; Hordych), Brüchen im Familiengefüge (Brook; Goldmann), Kampf gegen Abholzung (Nixon), technische Totalüberwachung im Alltag (Søilen/Maurer), narratologische Erkundungen von Zeit oder Gattung (Horst; Pierstorff; Reisener), stets erweist sich scheinbar banaler Alltag als erstaunlich produktiver Ausgangspunkt für gesellschaftliche, künstlerische und denkerische Prozesse. Das Gewöhnliche des Alltags ist nicht länger bloß statische Folie für einbrechende Ereignisse – es ist selbst als generatives Werden nobilitiert, das nun aber doppelbödige Wertung annimmt: Alltag verliert im Zuge einer Philosophie der Moderne das Verlässliche (Hüsch; Khurana), wird bedrohlich; zugleich bietet diese neue Unruhe des Alltags, sein "trouble", aber auch Chancen für Veränderung und feministisch-kritische oder künstlerische Intervention.

    We present a model based on Keynesian aggregate demand and labor productivity growth to study how climate damage affects the long-run evolution of the economy. Climate change induced by greenhouse gas lowers profitability, reducing investment and cutting output in the short and long runs. Short-run employment falls due to deficient demand. In the long run productivity growth is slower, lowering potential income levels. Climate policy can increase incomes and employment in the short and long runs while a continuation of business-as-usual leads to a dystopian income distribution with affluence for few and high levels of unemployment for the rest.

    Origin and Ellipsis in the Writing of Hilary Mantel provokes a re-engagement with Derrida’s thinking in contemporary literature, with particular emphasis on the philosopher’s preoccupation with the process of writing. This is the first book-length study of Mantel’s writing, not just in terms of Derrida’s thought, but through any critical perspective or lens to date

    Die Zukunft scheint unsicher, ja bedrohlich. Ob Klimawandel, möglicher Kollaps der Märkte oder die Entwicklung der westlichen Demokratien: Allgegenwärtig sieht man sich mit möglichen Katastrophen konfrontiert. Mit den intensiv darüber geführten Zukunftsdiskursen beschäftigen sich die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses interdisziplinären Bands, und zwar in analytisch-historischen Perspektiven. Denn die Art und Weise, wie man die Zukunft in den Blick nimmt, ist weder beliebig noch allgemein, sondern stark von religiös-apokalyptischen Denkmustern und Vorstellungswelten geprägt. Die ausführlichen Hintergrundanalysen geben überraschende Antworten auf apokalyptische Szenarien unserer Zeit. Negative expectations saturate the current debates about the future, and apocalyptic images are omnipresent. Are there other reasons for this than mere facts? The interdisciplinary studies by the fellows of the ZRWP’s Basler Forschungskolleg (Basel Research School) that are collated here address this question—and find surprising answers.

    Der Band ist den existenziellen Turbulenzen gewidmet, die dem Menschen nicht als katastrophales Ereignis widerfahren, sondern seinen unentrinnbaren Alltag formen. Egal ob Verschiebungen im universitären Selbstverständnis (Vinken), Umgang mit geschlechtlicher Abweichung (Ungelenk; Hordych), Brüchen im Familiengefüge (Brook; Goldmann), Kampf gegen Abholzung (Nixon), technische Totalüberwachung im Alltag (Søilen/Maurer), narratologische Erkundungen von Zeit oder Gattung (Horst; Pierstorff; Reisener), stets erweist sich scheinbar banaler Alltag als erstaunlich produktiver Ausgangspunkt für gesellschaftliche, künstlerische und denkerische Prozesse. Das Gewöhnliche des Alltags ist nicht länger bloß statische Folie für einbrechende Ereignisse – es ist selbst als generatives Werden nobilitiert, das nun aber doppelbödige Wertung annimmt: Alltag verliert im Zuge einer Philosophie der Moderne das Verlässliche (Hüsch; Khurana), wird bedrohlich; zugleich bietet diese neue Unruhe des Alltags, sein "trouble", aber auch Chancen für Veränderung und feministisch-kritische oder künstlerische Intervention.

    The 27th Conference of the Parties (COP 27) to the United Nations Framework Conven­tion on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, was marked by multiple crises and the shaken confidence of developing countries in the multilateral process. Nonetheless, an agreement was reached on the critical issue of loss and damage, even though many key aspects still need to be fleshed out. With regard to emission reductions, there is a credibility crisis that threatens to worsen, not only because political priorities have shifted following Russia's attack on Ukraine. In order to strengthen international climate cooperation in the coming years, it will be crucial to honour existing commitments, adhere to agreed processes, and show diplomatic tact in dealing with partner countries.

    What are the real and nominal implications of a green transition to a state with sustainable energy production, and how should monetary policy react during such transition? Using a New-Keynesian model with an energy and a goods sector, we show that a green transition requires the relative price of energy to increase and the relative price of goods, the marginal cost of production, and the real wage to fall. We prove analytically that if energy is not used in production and nominal wages and goods prices are rigid, a flexible energy price and a monetary policy rule that sees through energy-price changes are sufficient for replicating the flex-price economy. If energy is used in production there will be deviations from efficiency but because energy's share of income is small, these deviations are marginal unless the increase in the carbon tax is aggressive and/or monetary policy ill suited. During the green transition, it is optimal for monetary policy to see through the increasing energy prices and focus on core inflation. The result is a modest increase in CPI.
