Description
Arts of Living on a Damaged Planet: Ghosts of the Anthropocene This timely anthology brings together twenty eminent humanists and scientists to explore the urgent need for a new way of living on a planet under threat. The contributors offer a diverse range of perspectives on the impact of human activity on the natural world, from the intricate relationships between species to the ways in which we can work together to survive in a rapidly changing world. The essays are organized around two key themes: Ghosts, landscapes haunted by the violences of modernity, and Monsters, interspecies and intraspecies sociality. Through these concepts, the authors invite readers to encounter the wonders and terrors of an unintended epoch, from the beauty of nature to the devastating consequences of human actions.
