This monograph interrogates one of the key paradigms used in contemporary discussions of the Anthropocene--the idea that in the present geological epoch the human species inscribes itself onto the planet, and that those marks might be all we leave behind.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The notion of the Anthropocene is founded on the premise that traces of human activity on the earth will remain legible in the geological strata for millions of years to come, showing evidence of an anthropogenic signature inscribed in the rock by the human species. Spectrality and Survivance shows how embedded in this understanding of the Anthropocene is a speculative and specular gesture that transforms the notion of the future into an anthropocentric reflection of the present, prohibiting any true engagement with the possibility of a non-anthropocentric and post-anthropocenic world. In this volume, Marija Grech develops an alternative conceptual paradigm from which to think the Anthropocene beyond any limited notion of human language, human thought, human systems of meaning, or even a human world. Grech considers how the geological trace of the Anthropocene might be said to survive outside of the possibility of any human readership, and how the very survival of the human in and beyond the Anthropocene might necessitate such thought. This monograph interrogates one of the key paradigms used in contemporary discussions of the Anthropocenethe idea that in the present geological epoch the human species inscribes itself onto the planet, and that those marks might be all we leave behind.
