Climatic Subjects: Cultural Interventions, Writing Climate, and a Burning Planet: 311

Who, or what, is the contemporary climatic subject? And where do we find the stories, the imaginations, the relationships of future climatic subjects? Who, or what, is the contemporary climatic subject? Addressing the climate crisis in thought, imagination, and in action requires a connection between scholars, artists, journalists, and activists. The contributors to this volume put such a cooperation into practice and present not only academic articles, but also interviews, short stories, poems, and political essays. Readers will encounter the ›climatic subject‹ as an entity and as a historical force. But they will also hear the ›climatic subject‹ posed as a question, a displacement of subjectivation under the condition of the climate crisis. Finally, they will find the ›climatic subject‹ as a connector for new subjectivities yet to be embodied in cultural practice.
