Aprašymas

The Handbook of Latin American Environmental Aesthetics offers the first comprehensive overview of Latin American aesthetical and conceptual production addressing the more-than-human, including literature, performance, film, and other audiovisual arts as well as their interactions with community activisms.

Bringing together scholars who have helped establish environmental approaches in the field and emergent critical voices offering new challenges and opening new avenues of dialogue with fields including critical race theory, energy humanities, ethnicity and queer-*trans studies, the volume both traces the genealogies and maps out key positions in this increasingly central field of Latin Americanism and zooms in on "environmental aesthetics" as its point of entry to the larger constellation of the environmental humanities.

By showing how artistic and literary productions illuminate critical zones of ecological thought, articulating urgent social and material issues with cultural archives, historical approaches and conceptual interventions, this volume offers cutting-edge critical tools for approaching literature and the arts from new angles that call into question the nature/culture boundary.
