| Zusammenfassung: | Against Sustainability responds to the twenty-first-century environmental crisis by unearthing the nineteenth-century U.S. literary, cultural, and scientific contexts that gave rise to sustainability, recycling, and preservation. Through novel pairings of antebellum and contemporary writers including Walt Whitman and Lucille Clifton, George Catlin and Louise Erdrich, and Herman Melville and A. S. Byatt, the book demonstrates that some of our most vaunted strategies to address ecological crisis in fact perpetuate environmental degradation.Yet Michelle C. Neely also reveals that the nineteenth century offers useful and generative environmentalisms, if only we know where and how to find them. Henry David Thoreau and Emily Dickinson experimented with models of joyful, anti-consumerist frugality. Hannah Crafts and Harriet Wilson devised forms of radical pet-keeping that model more just ways of living with others. Ultimately, the book explores forms of utopianism that might more reliably guide mainstream environmental culture toward transformative forms of ecological and social justice. Through new readings of familiar texts, Against Sustainability demonstrates how nineteenth-century U.S. literature can help us rethink our environmental paradigms in order to imagine more just and environmentally sound futures |

Neely New York Fordham University Press 2020 © 2020 1 Online-Ressource (229 Seiten) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Against Sustainability responds to the twenty-first-century environmental crisis by unearthing the nineteenth-century U.S. literary, cultural, and scientific contexts that gave rise to sustainability, recycling, and preservation. Through novel pairings of antebellum and contemporary writers including Walt Whitman and Lucille Clifton, George Catlin and Louise Erdrich, and Herman Melville and A. S. Byatt, the book demonstrates that some of our most vaunted strategies to address ecological crisis in fact perpetuate environmental degradation.Yet Michelle C. Neely also reveals that the nineteenth century offers useful and generative environmentalisms, if only we know where and how to find them. Henry David Thoreau and Emily Dickinson experimented with models of joyful, anti-consumerist frugality. Hannah Crafts and Harriet Wilson devised forms of radical pet-keeping that model more just ways of living with others. Ultimately, the book explores forms of utopianism that might more reliably guide mainstream environmental culture toward transformative forms of ecological and social justice. Through new readings of familiar texts, Against Sustainability demonstrates how nineteenth-century U.S. literature can help us rethink our environmental paradigms in order to imagine more just and environmentally sound futures Geschichte 1800-1900 gnd rswk-swf Antebellum Literature Anthropocene Dickinson Environmentalism Melville Nineteenth Century Preservation Sustainability Thoreau Whitman LITERARY CRITICISM / Semiotics & Theory bisacsh American literature 19th century History and criticism American literature 20th century History and criticism American literature 21st century History and criticism Environmentalism in literature Human ecology in literature Nature Effect of human beings on United States Umweltschutz Motiv (DE-588)4124349-3 gnd rswk-swf Nachhaltigkeit Motiv (DE-588)7584074-1 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Nachhaltigkeit Motiv (DE-588)7584074-1 s Umweltschutz Motiv (DE-588)4124349-3 s Geschichte 1800-1900 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-8232-8822-9 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-0-8232-8820-5 https://doi.org/10.1515/9780823288236 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
