Águas Ambíguas: Corporificando Uma Consciência Antropocênica Por Meio Do Ecogótico Rioplatense
Este artigo[1] investiga compromissos com o modo gótico de escritoras de ambos os lados do Rio da Prata. O conto “Sob a água negra”, de Mariana Enríquez, e o romance Gosma Rosa, de Fernanda Trías, utilizam personagens de crianças monstruosas, rios tóxicos, e corpos mutantes para se envolverem não apenas com injustiças sociais e criticar modelos de produção, como também para indicar um caminho em direção a uma ética de cuidado multiespécie. Por me…

Aguas ambiguas: Encarnando Una Conciencia Antropocénica a Través Del Ecogótico Rioplatense
This article examines regional engagements with the gothic mode by contemporary writers on either side of the Río de la Plata. The short story "Bajo el Agua Negra" (Mariana Enríquez, 2016) and the novel Mugre Rosa (Fernanda Trías, 2020) both feature figures of monstrous children, toxic rivers, and mutated bodies not only to criticize historical and contemporary social injustices and dominant models of production, but also to imagine a multispecie…
La reproducción más allá de la extinción: Cuidados desintoxificados en ficciones antropocénicas latinoamericanas
Anxieties around failed parenting are linked to humanity’s failed stewardship of the planet in many recent Anthropocene narratives, yet the figure of the biological human child, as *the* signifier of futurity draws attention to the difficulty of imagining the future in non-heteronormative, non-Western, and non-anthropocentric terms. Reproduction is nothing if not a replication of self, of forms of life that are like us. In order to recuperate an …

The rise of the environmental humanities in recent years coincides with the turn towards the “Anthropoc…

Guilty Speculations: The Affective Climate of Global Anthropocene Fictions
Sticky e/motional connections: Young people, social media, and the re-orientation of affect
In this paper, I offer a provisional look at some of the ways that belonging, participation, and affective relations are being reconfigured through young people's relationship to social media as an important site of popular culture in South Africa, where the increasing ubiquity of digital devices is clearly shifting the nature of everyday relationships that shape their individual and collective sense of self. Despite concerns about the digital di…
