Customer Reviews

Makes three key assertions: focuses on the ways "climate change" has been discursively constructed; examines how those discursive constructions work to normalize a denialism beyond that of the officially designated "denialists"; and identifies that normalized denial as a form of cultural trauma. Uses several literary texts to assess how they attempt to grapple with the representational difficulties of articulating and thus containing the traumatic challenge at that crisis's heart. Explores how the disarticulations of climate change discourse might be illuminated by framing them in terms of the trope of "trauma."
