Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd
This comprehensive volume brings together scholars from diverse traditions within the humanities to explore the environmental catastrophe as the modern-day apocalypse. Drawing upon philosophy, theology, history, literature, art history, psychoanalysis, queer and decolonial theories, the authors included in this book delve into the profound meaning of the climate apocalypse, its pervasive presence in our daily lives, and its profound impact on our intellectual, imaginative, and moral practices.
One of the key insights of the chapters is that eco-apocalypticism can serve as a powerful framework for progressive discourses on climate change. By understanding the environmental catastrophe through the lens of apocalypticism, the authors demonstrate the potential for transformative change. This approach offers a valuable alternative to two unsatisfactory approaches to the climate disaster: the conservative impulse to preserve the status quo that perpetuates the crisis, and the reckless acceptance of the destructive effects of climate change.
The book will be an invaluable resource for students and scholars interested in exploring the contributions of both apocalypticism and the humanities to contemporary ecological debates. It provides a rich and interdisciplinary perspective on the urgent challenges we face as a planet, and offers insights into the ways in which we can cultivate a more sustainable and just future.
