This tension is summed up as one between the political stoicism that might emerge from the nether world of the Anthropocene and the well-being of walking this space in times of pandemic. This tension is created in original poems that punctuate the critical and historical enquiry. The scholarship of Jonathan Bate’s Radical Wordsworth (2020) and Adam Nicolson’s The Making of Poetry (2019) is discussed, leading to reference to Samantha Walton’s Everybody Needs Beauty: In Search of a Nature Cure (2021). Finally, John Muir’s framing of ‘going out’ for a walk as really ‘going in’ leads to the conclusion that both are needed now.","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77728377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

English Romantic poet John Clare staged his walker’s identity as daily sojourns through the landscape of his ‘childhood dear’, his leisured walking enacting his freedom from labour and poverty. But Clare’s walker also finds his ambulatory resistance ‘stopt’ as privatising enclosures of common lands cut him off from his memories and reinforce class oundaries. This essay looks through the lens of Clare’s poetry into another time of stopt paths, New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, to ask whether we can or should anchor identity in specific material locality traversed by the free walker. Does the walker’s placed identity empower personal transcendence and resistant action, or does the materiality of the local inevitably constrain the walker’s freedoms?","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78748168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It suggests that walking, as an action as well as an activity, triggers a transformation in his negotiations with radical alterity. This can be traced through a gradual shift in Richard’s perception of walking from an aesthetic pleasure to its utilisation in matters of ethical urgency. In this manner, it studies the new ethics of flânerie premised on affective and ethical engagements with various others in Erpenbeck’s novel.","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90040477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is much less common, however, for writers to confront the primary causes of climate change and global warming: the mining and burning of fossil fuels over the course of more than two centuries, from the dawn of industrial capitalism to the present. This essay will examine some notable exceptions to this general rule, focusing upon the work of two Canadian poet-activists, Stephen Collis and Rita Wong. In particular, I argue that their representations of the Alberta Tar Sands are illuminating not only for the ways in which they integrate the effects of climate change with their sources in what Andreas Malm calls ‘the fossil economy’ but also because they foreground the politics of walking in a polluted and brutalised landscape.","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86589612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a scale of loss outpaces language. Drawing on Denise Riley’s work on the autonomy of language, this article argues that contemplating extinction involves attending to language’s capacity to speak outside its context. Mindful of the 40% of amphibian life under threat of extinction, it examines three poems about frogs, by Paul Muldoon, Kathleen Jamie, and Vahni (Anthony Ezekiel) Capildeo, as instances of Riley’s concept of ‘lyric shame’, where the poet acknowledges the ‘voice of language itself … trying to speak’. Focusing on allusion, apostrophe, and ekphrasis (facets of the poem that involve a clinamen, a turn away from or towards the subject) it argues that the lyric poem – as an occasion where shame gives rise to song – can also be a vehicle for encountering the lament of long-neglected non-human voices.","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81356134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Day offers a new perspective on the connections between the natural environment, human bodies and literature, viewing texts as organisms that operate within an evolutionary system that emerges from, and runs parallel to, our material world. Day argues that information in interrelated systems adapts and mutates as it travels through time and space, shaping the future in unpredictable ways. This idea is illustrated in each chapter through an examination of a Shakespeare play and a modern work that is genetically related to the earlier drama. Day chooses to focus on Shakespeare because his works are particularly influential and ubiquitous in our culture, although Day points out that their stories can be traced back to the earliest civilisations. These examples underline the importance of literature’s role in the transmission of ideas and the construction of the human umwelt , a term coined by the German biologist Jakob Von Uexküll to denote ‘the species-specific linguistic habitat that humans share in common’ (xxii). In each chapter, Day builds on the theories of scientists and literary critics, and he inter-sperses the narrative in this often personal work with engaging stories from his own life that support his argument. Day hopes that his insights into our deep connection to the natural world will encourage humanity to disregard arbitrary barriers between species and see the world from an evolutionary perspective. In this way, the author aims to foster a greater respect for nature and a heightened awareness of the cascading effects our actions can have on the environment. This is very much a book for our times as the world continues to grapple with Covid and global warming. living love","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86633391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The director of La Otra Tempestad, a modern adaptation of The Tempest that Day watched in Madrid, responds to the same question about man’s relationship with nature, which remains just as urgent today.

The label ‘documentary’ evokes several assumptions and suggests that such artworks represent events in an objective, neutral and unmediated way. Consequently, the premise of representing reality-as-it-is is attached to these kinds of documentary artworks. Despite the large body of theoretical reflections on the limitations of the documentary mode, these false assumptions and promises endure. By revisiting the genealogy of the documentary tradition, and with particular reference to Hannes Dereere and Silke Huysmans’ 2019 performance Pleasant Island, this article points at some challenges and possible solutions for documentary artists to cope with the overwhelming complexity that characterises our current period.","PeriodicalId":38019,"journal":{"name":"Green Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91037671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
