Post Anthropocenes

Postcolonial, Postmodern, and Posthuman Ecocriticism

Herausgegeben: Vakoch, Douglas A.

Beschreibung

Post Anthropocenes: Postcolonial, Postmodern, and Posthuman Ecocriticism explores three distinct yet interrelated approaches to understanding the significance of the Anthropocene. Using the lenses of postcolonialism, postmodernism, and posthumanism, the book identifies ways that the Anthropocene forces us to reevaluate the relationship between humanity and nature. The chapters offer a coherent framework to anticipate what lies beyond the Anthropocene.
