Calls for Contributions

DESCRIPTION The “Language-Society-Environment Nexus” is a prominent cross-disciplinary field of research that has been commonly addressed by the scientific community. Be it a newspaper article, a video, a classroom activity, a political debate, a social network page, creative writing, or a textbook course, we think that environmental studies have been striving to maintain the protection of nature in all its interconnectivity, including all beings, humans and animals. Today, environmental studies are a magnet that connects ecology, society, and language. For example, problems like climate change, global warming, pollution, ...

For this volume, we invite contributions that seek to cultivate multispecies kinship by encouraging alternative ways of relating to, thinking about, and entering into conversation with the animate world. Inspired by the etymological ties to the land of the verb cultivate, this work aims at digging deep down along the epistemic roots of anthroparchy (Cudworth). The casting of the “Human” as dominant species is largely responsible for our failure to connect with ...

CALL—nonfiction or fiction essays that convey one clear and unified message: that our oceans are worth fighting for. To help restore a culture of inspiration and reverence towards Earth’s oceans we are looking for masterfully woven stories of 1000 to 3000 words from a range of perspectives—from marine life researchers to conservationists, free divers to writers with a deep connection to the sea, and more—who can reveal secrets of the oceans and their inhabitants, or have formed a unique bond with an ocean ...

Special Issue Proposal: Comparing Rivers: Aquacritical Perspectives across History and Literature

Editors: Anna Barcz (PI of Aquacritical Vistula), Monika Gromala & Paulina Waclawik (Team Members of Aquacritical Vistula)

CALL – rationale: Rivers’ symbolical functions are deeply embedded in global traditions, giving us an insight into their cultural value. However, the long history of rivers’ hydromorphological and hydraulic transformation, as well as their anthropogenic pollution, has not been reflected in the context of their abundant national and supranational literatures and other texts of identity cultures. This call addresses ...

The Digital Environmental Humanities. Towards Theory and Praxis.

Over the past years the rapid technological improvements, innovations and use of digital applications have transformed us into living and ...

The Routledge Companion to Ecopoetics offers comprehensive coverage of the vital and growing movement of ecopoetics. We understand the term ecopoetics as including innovative approaches to the entanglement of individuals, cultures, and languages with the natural systems that permeate and envelop them. We begin with the assumption that ecopoetics is not a genre such as ecopoetry or nature poetry, but rather a dynamic field of inquiry and a laboratory for new ways of knowing. The collection will be global in scope, with contributors ...

Insurgent Infrastructures Special Issue Critique: Studies in Contemporary Fiction

Whether it is pipeline protests, collapsed global supply chains, or fights for equitable housing, the invisible infrastructures that underpin our lives have gained an increasing vitality and presence as both bogeyman and rainmakers. More than just an increased visibility of the physical and ethereal infrastructures that compose our world, then, infrastructure itself, for all intents and purposes, has critically been weaponized over the past decade. From the insidious harvesting of digital data to the Polish/Belarusian border, ...

FEMINIST ECOLOGICAL CITIZENSHIP AND THE POLITICS OF CARE

At the “Women and Environment Conference” at UC Berkeley in 1974, convened by Sandra Marburg and Lisa Watson, the connection between women and environment was officially registered for the first time. The early ecofeminists like Vera Norwood find the association of women with nature and the efforts of the women in preserving the environment. They observe that, promoting its own history, and recognising the contribution of women in ...
