See CRICOS-registered alternativesThinking with mushrooms, lyrebirds, and scenes of post-apocalyptic devastation, this subject asks how writing has shaped relationships between 'culture' and 'nature', humans and the more-than-human, from the beginning of the Anthropocene in the late 1700s to the present. This subject explores moments in literature that have dramatically reimagined 'nature', 'the environment', and the future of life: from the poetry of untameable nature produced alongside the mass urbanisation of the Industrial Revolution; to the mode of ecological polemic that coincides with the rise of environmentalism as a political movement in the 1960s and 70s; to Indigenous story-telling as a caring for country through the apocalypse of settler colonization; to writing in our present moment, with an awareness of what to many seems a foreshortened future. Literature has not always been a force for good in the relationships between people and the more-than-human world; exploring this, we'll ask what roles it has in understanding and storying the present and future of that relationship. This is a level 3 subject. Please consider the subject pre-requisites before enrolling.
