摘要

摘要地球科学家声称，我们生活在一个新的地质时代，这就是人类对地球影响的大小、规模和范围。然而，人类世不能为自己说话：它需要发言人来分析和评估其特征和意义。人类场景必然会影响我们对人类世的理解。这篇评论文章评估了“场景”的最新版本之一，Julia Adeney Thomas编辑的《改变的地球》（2022）一书。针对那些之前知之甚少的人，《改变的地球》提出了如何最好地代表快速扩展的人类场景的问题，以便新手能够掌握关键问题、问题和辩论。不管你喜不喜欢，人类世对思想和行动提出了真正艰巨的挑战。人类场景的丰富性需要以这样的方式来解析，即允许外部的人理解主要的分析、道德伦理、美学和实践问题、视角和机会。

The Anthropocene and the geography of everything: can we learn how to think and act well in the ‘age of humans’?

ABSTRACT Geoscientists claim that we live in a new geological epoch, such is the magnitude, scale and scope of the human impact on the Earth. Yet the Anthropocene cannot speak for itself: it requires spokespeople to analyse and evaluate its character and meaning. The Anthroposcene necessarily mediates our understanding of the Anthropocene. This review essay assesses one of the latest editions to ‘the scene’, the book Altered Earth (2022) edited by Julia Adeney Thomas. Aimed at those with little prior knowledge, Altered Earth raises questions about how best to represent the fast-expanding Anthroposcene so that neophytes can grasp the key questions, issues and debates. Like it or not, the Anthropocene presents truly formidable challenges to thought and action. The richness of the Anthroposcene needs to be parsed in ways that allow those outside it to comprehend the principal analytical, moral-ethical, aesthetic and practical problems, perspectives and opportunities.

期刊介绍： The Scottish Geographical Journal is the learned publication of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society and is a continuation of the Scottish Geographical Magazine, first published in 1885. The Journal was relaunched in its present format in 1999. The Journal is international in outlook and publishes scholarly articles of original research from any branch of geography and on any part of the world, while at the same time maintaining a distinctive interest in and concern with issues relating to Scotland. “The Scottish Geographical Journal mixes physical and human geography in a way that no other international journal does. It deploys a long heritage of geography in Scotland to address the most pressing issues of today."
