Book Description
 
Living on a damaged planet challenges who we are and where we live. This timely anthology calls
on twenty eminent humanists and scientists to revitalize curiosity, observation, and
transdisciplinary conversation about life on earth.As human-induced environmental change
threatens multispecies livability, Arts of Living on a Damaged Planet puts forward a bold proposal:
entangled histories, situated narratives, and thick descriptions offer urgent “arts of living.” Included
are essays by scholars in anthropology, ecology, science studies, art, literature, and bioinformatics
who posit critical and creative tools for collaborative survival in a more-than-human Anthropocene.
The essays are organized around two key figures that also serve as the publication’s two
openings: Ghosts, or landscapes haunted by the violences of modernity; and Monsters, or
interspecies and intraspecies sociality. Ghosts and Monsters are tentacular, windy, and arboreal
arts that invite readers to encounter ants, lichen, rocks, electrons, flying foxes, salmon, chestnut
trees, mud volcanoes, border zones, graves, radioactive waste—in short, the wonders and terrors
of an unintended epoch.Contributors: Karen Barad, U of California, Santa Cruz; Kate Brown, U of
