Reading poetry and prose, images and art, literary and critical
theory, science and cultural studies, Close Reading the
Anthropocene explores the question of meaning, its importance and
immanent potential for loss, in the new geological epoch of the
Anthropocene. Both close reading and scientific ecology prioritize
slowing down and looking around to apprehend similarities and
differences, to recognize and value interconnections. Here "close"
suggests careful attention to both the reading subject and read
"object." Moving between places, rocks, plants, animals,
atmosphere, and eclipses, this interdisciplinary edited collection
grounds the complex relations between text and world in the
environmental humanities. The volume's wide-ranging chapters are
critical, often polemical, engagements with the question of the
Anthropocene and the changing conversation around reading,
interpretation, and textuality. They exemplify a range of work from
across the globe and will be of great interest to scholars and
students of the environmental humanities, ecocriticism, and
literary studies.
