The Anthropocene is a proposed geological epoch marking humanity's
alteration of the Earth: its rock structure, environments,
atmosphere. The Cambridge Companion to Literature and the
Anthropocene offers the most comprehensive survey yet of how
literature can address the social, cultural, and philosophical
questions posed by the Anthropocene. This volume addresses the old
and new literary forms - from novels, plays, poetry, and essays to
exciting and evolving genres such as 'cli-fi', experimental poetry,
interspecies design, gaming, weird, ecotopian and petro-fiction,
and 'new' nature writing. Studies range from the United States to
India, from Palestine to Scotland, while addressing numerous global
signifiers or consequences of the Anthropocene: catastrophe,
extinction, 'fossil capital', warming, politics, ethics,
interspecies relations, deep time, and Earth. This unique Companion
offers a compelling account of how to read literature through the
Anthropocene and of how literature might yet help us imagine a
better world.
