Critical Worldmaking: Concepts for Radical System Change from Speculative Fiction and the Environmental Humanities - Moritz Ingwersen

18. Jan.

Ringvorlesung: Klimakatastrophe. Kulturwissenschaftliche Perspektiven

12:15 Uhr, Hörsaal 3

The urgency of the climate catastrophe demands a radical break with the habitualized ways in which we have come to imagine, perceive, and construct our relationship to the world. Drawing on examples from speculative fiction and the critical apparatus of the environmental humanities, this talk will offer a range of concepts and contexts that help dislocate and estrange dominant modes of worldmaking in favor of more inclusive, culturally-anchored, and ecologically entangled responses to climate disruption.

Die Vorlesung wird auf englisch stattfinden.
