Panorama of the Pandemic: A Phenomenological Inquiry (1) (Academics, Politics and Society in the Post-Covid World)

Synopsis

This volume provides a multi-nuanced analysis of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on various aspects of human existence, encompassing societal, economic, and inter-relational dimensions. It highlights a broad range of artistic and literary experiences that unfolded as a consequence of the pandemic or speak to that time.The book revisits pandemic-induced shifts, phenomenologically, including the digitization of art and representations of creativity, “performance” anxiety, socio-political climate determined by “racial algorithms,” gaming surges, employment insecurities, mental health issues from a pedagogical materiality, and the nature of apocalypse through literary reimaginations. It also delves into the global food crisis, reframing of family structures, and local subjectivities as lived experiences.A unique contribution, the book will be useful for students and researchers of cultural studies, digital humanities, mass media, sociology, mental health, psychology, medical anthropology, public health, literature, history of pandemics and epidemics, and South Asian studies.
