This interdisciplinary volume discusses whether the increasing
salience of the Anthropocene concept in the humanities and the
social sciences constitutes an "Anthropocenic turn." The
Anthropocene discourse creates novel conceptual configurations and
enables scholars to re-negotiate and re-contextualize
long-established paradigms, premises, theories and methodologies.
These innovative constellations stimulate fresh research in many
areas of thought and practice. The contributors to this volume
respond to the proposition of an "Anthropocene turn" from the
perspective of diverse research fields, including history of
science, philosophy, environmental humanities and political science
as well as literary, art and media studies. Altogether, the
collection reveals to which extent the Anthropocene concept
challenges deep-seated assumptions across disciplines. It invites
readers to explore the wealth of scholarly perspectives on the
Anthropocene as well as unexpected inter- and transdisciplinary
connections.
