Monsters, Catastrophes and the Anthropocene: A Postcolonial Critique (Routledge Environmental Humanities)
by Gaia GiulianiMonsters, Catastrophes and the Anthropocene: A Postcolonial Critique explores European and Western imaginaries of natural disaster, mass migration and terrorism through a postcolonial inquiry into modern conceptions of monstrosity and catastrophe. This book uses established icons of popular visual culture in sci-fi, doomsday and horror films and TV series, as well as in images reproduced by the news media to help trace the genealogy of modern fears to ontologies and logics of the Anthropocene. By logics of the Anthropocene, the book refers to a set of principles based on ontologies of exploitation, extermination and natural resource exhaustion processes determining who is worthy of benefiting from value extraction and being saved from the catastrophe and who is expendable. Fears for the loss of isolation from the unworthy and the expendable are investigated here as originating anxieties against migrants’ invasions, terrorist attacks and planetary catastrophes, in a thread that weaves together re-emerging ‘past nightmares’ and future visions. This book will be of great interest to students and academics of the Environmental Humanities, Human and Cultural Geography, Political Philosophy, Psychosocial Studies, Postcolonial Studies and Critical Race and Whiteness Studies, Gender Studies and Postcolonial Feminist Studies, Cultural Studies, Sociology, Cultural Anthropology, Cinema Studies and Visual Studies.
Monstrous Nature and Representations of Environmental Harms: A Green Cultural Criminological Perspective
by Avi Brisman Nigel SouthHow does culture influence human relationships with the environment? In Monstrous Nature and Representations of Environmental Harms, green cultural criminologists Avi Brisman and Nigel South examine stories of monsters and disasters to address how the ways we depict and think about harms to the environment dissuade us from taking care of our planet and each other. The authors use examples from popular culture, including Disney and Marvel Cinematic Universe films, to consider ideas about how the environment responds to people who cause it harm. Brisman and South identify and discuss three dominant and interrelated depictions of the relationship between humans and the environment: first, nature as monstrous or fear inducing; second, nature and the Earth (or parts of it) as abject; and third, the entanglement of nature and the apocalypse, wherein nature is contributing to the end of the world, with an end point sometimes conceptualized as one without humans. Monstrous Nature and Representations of Environmental Harms argues that such representations have material consequences. The authors make the case for challenging them so that we neither perpetuate them nor retreat into cynicism and defeatism about the future of our planet.

by Tove Jansson Thomas Warburton"This is snow," whispered Moomintroll. "I've heard about it from Mother, and it's called snow." Everyone knows that Moomins sleep through the winter. But this year Moomintroll has woken up in January. So while the rest of the family slumber, he decides to visit all his favorite summer haunts. But the valley is gone: the river, the grass, the trees-- everything is covered in this strange white stuff. Even the sun is gone! Moomintroll is angry: whoever Winter is, she has some nerve. At least he's not alone. Little My is awake, too, and having a wonderful time sledding on Moominmamma's tea tray. In fact, more creatures than Moomintroll ever imagined inhabit this new world, including a wise newcomer named Too-ticky who introduces him to this most mysterious of all seasons. The curious and comic inhabitants of Moominvalley are brought to life in Tove Jansson's delightful drawings, and as he bravely goes where no Moomin has gone before, Moomintroll discovers that maybe Winter is worth waking up for, after all.
