Includes bibliographical references and index.
"In this book for students and scholars in the humanities, Caroline Levine argues against the idea that humanists lack the tools or the expertise to participate in political activism, especially activism against features of contemporary life that exacerbate the climate crisis, such as colonialism, capitalism, and racism. Resisting what she sees as a tendency in the environmental humanities to "unmake dominant norms and institutions, on the one hand, and to embrace 'recessive action' and 'modest gestures of care,' on the other," she seeks to understand the separation of aesthetic study from political action within the academy, and to sketch out an alternative that presents practical political action as an integral part of humanistic work"-- Provided by publisher.
