Ice Witnesses
The key witnesses to the fact that climate change is anthropogenic are non-human. Ice cores, in particular, document that the current increase in atmospheric carbon levels is unmistakably due to industrial activities. In our article we discuss how the significance of ice is not restricted to its function as a scientific climate proxy but encompasses ice as a natural archive, an elemental medium and as a material climate witness. When ice enters p…
Tiefenzeitliche Erinnerungen in der anthropozänen Literatur
With the increasing interconnectedness of nature and culture in the Anthropocene, new narratives about humanity’s past, present, and future have been emerging. This is associated with a restructuring of cultural memory in the context of Earth history. To contribute to a better understanding of these changes, this paper takes recourse to approaches from Memory Studies. In a post-humanist extension of Memory Studies, the so-called archives of natur…
Anthropozäne Literatur
Wie die Geschichte(n) der Erde bewohnen? (Literarische) Kompositionen von planetarer Zeit zwischen Moderne und Anthropozän
As human activities increasingly shape the material reality of the earth, it becomes important to embed the temporalities of human experience and history in the larger context of planetary temporalities. In this article I ask for a composition of planetary time that allows as a theoretical framework to explore the manifold relations between human and more-than-human kinds of time. In a first step, I show how the relation of geological ‘deep time’…
Terrestrische Utopie. Das Problem der Utopie im Anthropozän und Ursula K. Le Guins Always Coming Home
Planetary Textuality
Knowledge of Earth history is produced by the geological interpretation of material traces as signs of past events and processes. The system formed by material traces, geological practices of interpretation, and written accounts of Earth history promotes the notion of “planetary textuality.” In a close reading of Asmus Trautsch’s poem “Die Urwälder Europas” (2016), this essay shows how literature, owing to its meta-poetic reflection on language, …
