In light of Amitav Ghosh's (2016) exploration of \"a crisis of the imagination\" in the face of climate change and environmental degradation, this book addresses the potential of literature, history, and politics in comprehending the profound dimensions and violence of these challenges. The chapters show, among others, that the Anthropocene demands fresh narratives and theoretical perspectives, particularly within the framework of Inter-American Studies, which can offer a new venue to discuss pressing issues and to provide intersectional and inter-regional considerations. Thus, drawing on Inter-American perspective with its hemispheric perspectives opens the possibilities for an ecocritical reading of the complexities and relationalities of the climate crisis in the humanities as well as the social sciences. As a result, the book includes historical and political analysis, as well as literary, cultural and film analysis of texts from the Americas. The chapters engage in deconstructing popular myths, de-centering Western approaches, and eventually show through these critical engagements how the climate crisis demands multi-dimensional readings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEva Bauer\u003c\/b\u003e earned her Joint Master's degree in English and American Studies from the University of Graz (Austria) and the Université Paris Cité (France).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNicole Haring\u003c\/b\u003e is senior scientist at the Center for Inter-American Studies at the University of Graz, Austria\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoberta Maierhofer\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of American studies and director of the Center for Inter-American Studies at the University of Graz, Austria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 182\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 15, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46629948129477,"sku":"9781666968279","price":183.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/vxleKLY-vs9781666968279.webp?v=1785329728","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/entanglements-narratives-and-the-environment-inter-american-perspectives-hardcover","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
