[London, England] : Bloomsbury Publishing, 2022 1 online resource (240 pages) text rdacontent computer rdamedia online resource rdacarrier Environmental Cultures Introduction -- Chapter 1, "Uncertainty in the Future Tense" -- Chapter 2, "Pathways to Unstable Worlds" -- Chapter 3, "Strange Animals and Metonymic Mysteries" -- Chapter 4, "The Meta and the Uncertain" -- Chapter 5, "Deus Ex Algorithmo" -- Chapter 6, "Ecologies of Interactive Narrative" Coda, "Weathering Uncertainty, with Jenny Offill". "This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by the University of Ghent. This book argues that storytelling is an important resource in coming to terms with the loss of the feeling of living a grounded existence where the future remains relatively stable and predictable. Faced with the specter of climate catastrophe, we lose confidence in the future-a well-documented response in the environmental movement, for example. Yet stories, and in particular sophisticated fictional stories, can help us negotiate that uncertainty: they offer affective and imaginative tools that channel the instability of our climate future and invite audiences to accept its fundamental uncertainty. In all, this book represents a serious contribution to the environmental humanities that brings a flexible formal approach to bear on central questions of our time. Its commentary on contemporary works of prose and digital narrative is an aid for navigating climate uncertainty and appreciating the more-than-human scale-but also the tragic ramifications-of the ecological crisis."-- Provided by publisher.
