Description

Breaking away from usual fear-inducing and apocalyptic narratives, this book explores the visceral and cognitive affordances of satirical narratives in advocating critical environmentalism at individual, institutional, and collective levels. It grapples with questions of anthropomorphism, environmental and multispecies justice, hope and undefeated despair, and proposes material(ist) approaches for appreciating arts in what Donna Haraway has called the ‘Chthulucene’. It draws on insights from literary and cultural studies, environmental humanities, psychology, and communication studies to demystify environmental justice and engage decolonial and emancipatory strategies in an enmeshed and materially entangled world. It investigates a variety of works across different media, contexts, and languages including Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb; Don't Look Up; The Late Show with Stephen Colbert; Last Week Tonight with John Oliver; ZDF Magazin Royale; Honest Government Ads; and Venomous Lumpsucker to move beyond existing paradigms and practices by proposing the notion of emancipatory worlding.
