Ecological Feelings (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

"These days, earthly coexistence often feels bad. As environmental crises amass, they cast a shadow over an imagined future and the promises of better--or at least predictable--days to come. In times of climate chaos, mass extinction, and rampant environmental injustice, it is easy to despair. But, here and there, a glimmer of joy or optimism shines forth and reminds us that it is possible--even necessary--to love and to hope amid the ruins.
The contributors to this volume grapple with a plurality of interrelated ecological feelings: care, concern, contempt, empathy, fear, grief, hope, joy, numbness, optimism, possessiveness, regret, and saudades. Informed by a rhetorical perspective, the essays collected here reveal what sets our ecological feelings into motion. Crucially, they also uncover some of the rhetorical practices through which we might collectively feel our way into a more harmonious earthly coexistence."
