  1. Depicting the climate-changing Arctic in theatre: polar bears, humanity, and the breath of life

    ger: In meiner Masterarbeit analysiere ich die Klimawandel-Theaterstücke Sila (2015) und The Breathing Hole (2017). Diese Stücke spielen in der Arktis und wurden von kanadischen Dramatikerinnen geschrieben. In beiden Stücken spielen Eisbären eine wichtige Rollen. Klimaaktivisten kritisieren die Tatsache, dass das Leiden von Eisbären als Paradebeispiel des Klimawandels angepriesen wird, weil der Klimawandel als humanitäre Krise behandelt werden sollte, die jetzt bereits Inuit und andere in der Arktis lebende indigene Stämme betrifft. In den Medien und in den Künsten sollte die Krise daher in erster Linie so dargestellt werden, dass sie den Menschen als Opfer darstellt. In meiner Arbeit argumentiere ich, dass Eisbären eine wichtige Rolle in Klimawandel-Stücken spielen. Ich gebe eine Einführung in die Theorie der Sympathie und wie sie durch geografische Distanz und kulturelle Unterschiede beeinflusst werden kann, und analysiere die Bedeutung des Theaters als Kunstform, die das Publikum zum Handeln animieren kann. Ausgehend von der Rezeptionstheorie argumentiere ich, dass Eisbären in Theaterstücken zum Thema Klimawandel anthropomorph dargestellt werden, um das Publikum dazu zu bewegen, Sympathie für die Tiere zu empfinden, und zeige Beispiele aus den bereits erwähnten Stücken auf die meine Argumente unterstützen. Des Weiteren zeige ich auch, wie Eisbären die kulturelle Kluft zwischen Inuit Charakteren und dem westlichen Publikum in diesen Stücken zu überbrücken helfen, und komme zu dem Fazit, dass diese Tiere in Klimawandel-Theaterstücken vor allem darauf aufmerksam machen, dass es Menschlichkeit benötigt um aktiv gegen den Klimawandel anzukämpfen. eng: In my thesis I analyze the climate change plays Sila (2015) and The Breathing Hole (2017). These plays are set in the Arctic and were written by Canadian playwrights, and both feature polar bears as important roles. Climate change activists are criticizing the fact that polar bears are the face of climate change, even though it should be treated as a humanitarian crisis that already affects Inuit and other indigenous tribes living in the Arctic. Therefore, in the media and in the arts, the crisis should be portrayed as affecting humans first and foremost. In my thesis, I argue that polar bears play an important role in climate change theatre. I am giving an introduction to the theory of sympathy and how it can be influenced by geographical distance and cultural differences, and analyze the importance of theatre as a form of art that has the power to call an audience to action. Based on reception theory, I then argue that polar bears in climate change plays are used in connection with humanization and interconnectedness in order to stir the audience towards feeling sympathy for the animals and rowards wanting to become active in climate change activism--a process that I illustrate with examples of these strategies in both plays. Furthermore, I also highlight how polar bears help bridge the cultural gap between Inuit characters and the Western audience in these plays, and conclude that as for climate change plays, these animals also have the ability to foreground the humanity that needs to be displayed in order to actively fight climate change.

    In History 4° Celsius Ian Baucom continues his inquiries into the place of the Black Atlantic in the making of the modern and postmodern world. Putting black studies into conversation with climate change, Baucom outlines how the ongoing concerns of critical race, diaspora, and postcolonial studies are crucial to understanding the Anthropocene. He draws on materialist and post-materialist thought, Sartre, and the science of climate change to trace the ways in which evolving political, cultural, and natural history converge to shape a globally destructive force. Identifying the quest for limitless financial gain as the primary driving force behind both the slave trade and the continuing increase in global greenhouse gas emissions, Baucom demonstrates that climate change and the conditions of the Black Atlantic, colonialism, and the postcolony are fundamentally entwined. In so doing, he argues for the necessity of establishing a method of critical exchange between climate science, black studies, and the surrounding theoretical inquiries of humanism and posthumanism

    How do artists and writers engage with environmental knowledge in the face of overwhelming information about catastrophe? What kinds of knowledge do the arts produce when addressing climate change, extinction, and other environmental emergencies? What happens to scientific data when it becomes art? In Infowhelm, Heather Houser explores the ways contemporary art manages environmental knowledge in an age of climate crisis and information overload.Houser argues that the infowhelm—a state of abundant yet contested scientific information—is an unexpectedly resonant resource for environmental artists seeking to go beyond communicating stories about crises. Infowhelm analyzes how artists transform the techniques of the sciences into aesthetic material, repurposing data on everything from butterfly migration to oil spills and experimenting with data collection, classification, and remote sensing. Houser traces how artists ranging from novelist Barbara Kingsolver to digital memorialist Maya Lin rework knowledge traditions native to the sciences, entangling data with embodiment, quantification with speculation, precision with ambiguity, and observation with feeling. Their works provide new ways of understanding environmental change while also questioning traditional distinctions between types of knowledge. Bridging the environmental humanities, digital media studies, and science and technology studies, this timely book reveals the importance of artistic medium and form to understanding environmental issues and challenges our assumptions about how people arrive at and respond to environmental knowledge

    "Narrative is the stuff of community. The book embarks on a quest to understand how narrative works to take an inchoate group of individuals and turn it into a cohesive social movement. To understand the power of narrative, the authors examine the particular phenomenon of climate skepticism. Somehow, the narrative of climate skepticism has been able to forge a movement and stake a challenge to the hegemony of the larger community of scientists on what is ostensibly a matter of science. The book asks: how is this achieved? What is the narrative of climate skepticism, and how has it evolved over time and diffused from place to place? Is it possible that this narrative shares with other narratives an underlying genetic code of sorts, a story that is more fundamental than all of these? How has the climate skeptical narrative contended with its other, which is the narrative-network of climate change science, and forged its own social movement? The outcome of this struggle between climate science and its denial has implications for society that go far beyond climatology. Using narrative analysis, the authors demonstrate how the narrative lens allows us unique insights into these questions. The book takes the reader on a journey, across times and places and social realms and, throughout, we see the power of narrative at work, making believers, or skeptics, of us all

    "The book examines the narratives of climate change which have developed and which are currently evolving in three areas: law, fiction and activism. Narratives of climate change generated by litigants, judges, writers of fiction and activists are having, and will have, a profound effect on the way we respond to the climate change crisis. Acknowledging the prevalence of unreliable narrators, this book explores the reliability and significance of different forms of climate narrative. The author analyses overlapping themes and points of intersection, considering the recurrent motif of the trickster, the prominence of the child, the significance and ongoing viability of the rights discourse, and the increasingly prevalent emergency framing with its multiple implications for law's empire. She asks how law, fiction and activism measure up as textual and performative fora for telling the story of climate change and anticipating a climate-changed future. And, in addition, how can they help foster transformative narratives which empower us to confront the climate change crisis? This highly topical, cross-disciplinary work will be of interest to anyone concerned about the growing climate emergency, and makes a valuable contribution to climate law, environmental law, the environmental humanities and ecocriticism"--

Bridging the environmental humanities, digital media studies, and science and technology studies, this timely book reveals the importance of artistic medium and form to understanding environmental issues and challenges our assumptions about how people arrive at and respond to environmental knowledge"--

    The more the global north has learned about the existential threat of climate change, the faster it has emitted greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. In Trauma and the Discourse of Climate Change, Lee Zimmerman thinks about why this is by examining how "climate change" has been discursively constructed, tracing how the ways we talk and write about climate change have worked to normalize a generalized, bipartisan denialism more profound than that of the overt "denialists."Suggesting that we understand that normalized denial as a form of cultural trauma, the book explores how the dominant ways of figuring knowledge about global warming disarticulate that knowledge from the trauma those figurations both represent and reproduce, and by which they remain inhabited and haunted. Its early chapters consider that process in representations of climate change across a range of disciplines and throughout the public sphere, including Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, Barack Obama's speeches and climate plans, and the 2015 Paris Agreement. Later chapters focus on how literary representations especially, for the most part, participate in such disarticulations, and on how, in grappling with the representational difficulties at the climate crisis's heart, some works of fiction-among them Cormac McCarthy's The Road and Russell Hoban's Riddley Walker-work against that normalized rhetorical violence. The book closes with a meditation centered on the dream of the burning child Freud sketches in The Interpretation of Dreams.Highlighting the existential stakes of the ways we think and write about the climate, Trauma and the Discourse of Climate Change aims to offer an unfamiliar place from which to engage the astonishing quiescence of our ecocidal present. This book will be essential reading for academics and students of psychoanalysis, environmental humanities, trauma studies, literature, and environmental studies, as well as activists and others drawn to thinking about the climate crisis

    "Writing a New Environmental Era first considers and then rejects back-to-nature thinking and its proponents like Henry David Thoreau, arguing that human beings have never lived at peace with nature. Consequently, we need to stop thinking about going back to what never was and instead work at moving forward to forge a more harmonious relationship with nature in the future. Using the rise of the automobile and climate change denial literature to explore how our current environmental era was written into existence, Ken Hiltner argues that the humanities - and not, as might be expected, the sciences - need to lead us there. In one sense, climate change is caused by a rise in atmospheric CO2 and other so-called greenhouse gases. Science can address this cause. However, approached in another way altogether, climate change is caused by a range of troubling human activities that require the release of these gases, such as our obsessions with cars, lavish houses, air travel and endless consumer goods. The natural sciences may be able to tell us how these activities are changing our climate, but not why we are engaging in them. That's a job for the humanities and social sciences. As this book argues, we need to see anthropogenic (i.e. human-caused) climate change for what it is and address it as such: a human problem brought about by human actions. A passionate and personal exploration of why the Environmental Humanities matter and why we should be looking forward, not back to nature, this book will be essential reading for all those interested in the future and sustainability of our planet"--

    How do artists and writers engage with environmental knowledge in the face of overwhelming information about catastrophe? What kinds of knowledge do the arts produce when addressing climate change, extinction, and other environmental emergencies? What happens to scientific data when it becomes art? In Infowhelm, Heather Houser explores the ways contemporary art manages environmental knowledge in an age of climate crisis and information overload.Houser argues that the infowhelm—a state of abundant yet contested scientific information—is an unexpectedly resonant resource for environmental artists seeking to go beyond communicating stories about crises. Infowhelm analyzes how artists transform the techniques of the sciences into aesthetic material, repurposing data on everything from butterfly migration to oil spills and experimenting with data collection, classification, and remote sensing. Houser traces how artists ranging from novelist Barbara Kingsolver to digital memorialist Maya Lin rework knowledge traditions native to the sciences, entangling data with embodiment, quantification with speculation, precision with ambiguity, and observation with feeling. Their works provide new ways of understanding environmental change while also questioning traditional distinctions between types of knowledge. Bridging the environmental humanities, digital media studies, and science and technology studies, this timely book reveals the importance of artistic medium and form to understanding environmental issues and challenges our assumptions about how people arrive at and respond to environmental knowledge

    Die ökologische Krise, die wir aktuell erfahren, drängt zu einem Neudenken unseres Verhältnisses zur Natur und zu den natürlichen Ressourcen sowie des (Zusammen-) Lebens auf dem Planeten Erde. Unsere Koexistenz muss neu entworfen werden – posthumane Denkkonzepte, die den Menschen als Teil und nicht als Zentrum der Welt verstehen, und technologische Entwicklungen sollen dazu beitragen. In "Potential Worlds: Planetary Memories & Eco-Fictions" widmen sich 36 internationale historische und gegenwärtige künstlerische Positionen den ökologischen und sozialen Konsequenzen unserer Vergangenheit und Gegenwart und fordern unser bestehendes Verständnis des Daseins auf der Welt heraus. Essays von Benjamin H. Bratton, T. J. Demos, Reza Negarestani und Jussi Parikka bearbeiten Aspekte wie Kolonialismus, Ressourcen, Posthumanismus und Ökologie und diskutieren die Rolle und Wirkkraft der Kunst. Kurztexte zu den einzelnen Positionen und eine Einleitung der Herausgeberinnen runden diesen dichten illustrierten Reader ab.
