Nicholas Lawrence, 鈥溾�楨verything Changes鈥�: Brecht, Benjamin, Adorno鈥�
Wednesday 25 January 2023, 5pm, FAB 3.30

A seminar hosted by the 糖心TV Workshop for Interdisciplinary German Studies.

Abstract:

This paper looks at the question of historical last chances through the prism of a 1944 poem by Bertolt Brecht, 鈥淎lles wandelt sich [Everything changes],鈥� refracted through related work by two of Brecht鈥檚 contemporaries, Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, and projected into an afterlife conditioned by altered senses of crisis and catastrophe. Reviewing the theory of historical contingency and opportunity developed by Benjamin, and the method of lyric reading proposed by Adorno, the paper aims to revise the latter鈥檚 understanding of a social poetics in which the poem serves as a 鈥榮undial telling the time of history.鈥� Instead, it outlines what might be called lyric theory for a warming world, in which, paraphrasing Andreas Malm, we can never read in the heat of the moment, only in the heat of an ongoing past.

All welcome!

Antonia Hoffst盲tter, 鈥淔alling Stars, Dying Planets, and the Limits of Natural Beauty: Reflections on Adorno鈥檚 Aesthetics in the Age of the Anthropocene鈥�
Tuesday 5 December 2022, 5:30-7pm, A0.23 (CRPLA seminar)

Abstract:

Adorno鈥檚 aesthetics are currently undergoing a renaissance. The reason, it seems, lies not in their potential contribution to the analyses of contemporary artworks, but in Adorno鈥檚 unorthodox rethinking of the notion of natural beauty. In their resemblance to natural beauty, 鈥榮uccessful鈥� artworks, Adorno claims, promise the end of the domination of nature. In thus providing an intellectual resource for conceptualizing non-instrumental modes of comportment toward the natural world, the appeal of 鈥榥atural beauty鈥� to contemporary scholarship is hardly surprising. Taking my cue from Adorno鈥檚 historically situated approach, however, I would like to problematize this current intellectual trend. In my paper, I will first lend substance to Adorno鈥檚 notion of natural beauty by unpacking his reading of a passage in Beethoven鈥檚 piano sonata in D minor, Op.31 No. 2, in which a falling star seems to appear on the firmament. I will then move to Adorno鈥檚 reflections on the closing bars of Mahler鈥檚 Lied von der Erde, which, I contend, register an inversion of the Beethovenian perspective. My tracing of these two distinct aesthetic and metaphysical constellations aims not only at elucidating the complex concept of natural beauty but, crucially, at drawing out the historically contingent and shifting aesthetic experiences which they presuppose. Ultimately, I will raise the question whether the aesthetic experiences that informed Adorno鈥檚 approach to art and aesthetics – and which are indebted to the experience of beauty in nature – still resonate with us today.

Mead Gallery Roundtable on Radical Landscapes
Tuesday 22 November 2022, 5:30-7pm, A0.23

Poet Cole Swensen will lead a discussion (with slides) on artwork that addresses ecological issues in obvious as well as oblique ways, including work by artists who have engaged the landscape genre in a fluid manner, so as to put the landscape back into motion, and in doing so, who have found alternatives to some of the presumptions and practices of landscape art common to Euro-centric contexts. Swensen also will address how her own work as a poet engages landscape. The event is free and open to the public.

Suggested reading:
Introduction & essay, "An Argument Against Timeless Art" and "Christo & Jeanne-Claude: The Running Fence," from Art in Time
Excerpts from Landscapes on a Train 

Cole Swensen is the author of 17 books of poetry, most recently On Walking On (Nightboat, 2017), a collection of hybrid poem-essays, Art in Time (Nightboat, 2021), and a collection of critical essays, Noise That Stays Noise (U. of Michigan, 2011). Much of her work is related to the visual arts and often addresses landscape and land-use concerns. Her work has been awarded the Iowa Poetry Prize, the S.F. State Poetry Center Book Award, and the National Poetry Series, and has been a finalist twice for the L.A. Times Book Award and once for the National Book Award. A former Guggenheim Fellow, she co-edited the Norton anthology American Hybrid and is the founding editor of La Presse. She has translated over twenty books of French poetry, creative non-fiction, and art criticism, including Jean Fr茅mon's Island of the Dead, which won the 2004 PEN USA Award in Translation. She divides her time between Paris and Providence R.I., where she teaches at Brown University.

Alterstories from the Soil: Exploring Ecological Un/Belongings: A Symposium
15 June 2022, 9.30am-6.30pm, Oculus 1.06, University of 糖心TV

Soils have stories to tell about pasts, presents and futures in the making. The environmental crisis affecting soils today has led to a wave of appreciation of their materiality as living worlds and to calls to rethink human-soil relations as an ecological community of care. Yet soils also entail a material memory of troubled associations with un/belonging. Stories about human-soil attachments can evoke deep care for places, but also historical and current exploitation, exclusion, and dispossession from land and community. Encouraging re-imaginations of human-soil relations as ecological belongings, this gathering seeks to bring together the cares of un/belonging and ecological thinking through alterstories that may nurture alternative conceptions of more than human justice.

Ecological Accounts: A Roundtable
31 May 2022, 4:00pm, 糖心TV 糖心TV School, room 0.301 and online
Nicholas Lawrence and Jonathan Skinner (English & Comparative Literary Studies), with Hendrick Vollmer (WBS):

The quest for 鈥榚cological accounts鈥� has made questionable the modern opposition of nature and society, as well as inherited distinctions between specialised tribes of bookkeepers across the sciences, humanities, and professions. The roundtable will offer an opportunity to explore the variety of ecological accounts and accountings that are currently emerging from this quest, and what might still unite them.

A mini-symposium/roundtable and discussion with writers Jennifer Scappetone, Daniel Eltringham, and Zo毛 Skoulding (Jonathan Skinner, convenor)

Jennifer Scappettone, 鈥淲hat the Canary Said: From Opacity to Shimmer in Argots of the Copper Lyre鈥�

鈥檚 current cross-genre book project tracks the expansive, yet largely obscured networks of mining, refinement, and salvage undergirding copper extraction economies across global resource networks and commodity frontiers to develop the concept of a critical geopoetics, arguing for the value of routing research into geology, labor history, infrastructure studies, and industrial heritage through poetic composition as a means of rendering polyphonic the origins and far-reaching environmental consequences of the global network. Through the image of the 鈥渃opper lyre鈥�—an imagined yoking of telecommunicative infrastructure to forge a poetically resonant instrument—it explores the ability of lyrical forms to sound the subdued externalities of the so-called global village by making visible, and literally by 鈥渁iring,鈥� material archaeologies eclipsed by the etherealized image of the cloud. Scappettone will close by presenting strains of her recent poetry and installation work that explore what鈥檚 missing from Anglocentric frameworks of environmental humanities and activism: both possibilities for cross-cultural solidarity enabled by wide-ranging translation practices among workers of the world and the wisdom roused by opening to languages outside one鈥檚 province and species of mastery.鈥�

Daniel Eltringham, 鈥淐reaturely Insurgence: Liberation Ecopoetics in Translation鈥�

: What might be the tentative contours of a translingual liberation or 鈥済uerrilla鈥� ecopoetics? I suggest tracking the movements of such militant ecologies in translation networks that bridge Latin American decolonial struggle and Anglophone small-press poetries, spreading solidarity that extends to the more-than-human lifeworlds of rural guerrilla insurgency. I will discuss creaturely insurgence in poems by three guerrilla poets, none of whom survived the 1960s: Che Guevara鈥檚 vengeful green caiman as an emblem of more-than-human liberation; Javier Heraud鈥檚 buzzing fly as a vector of resistance to counter-insurgency's targeting of ecological reproduction; and Rita Valdivia鈥檚 poetry of militant kin-making, which expands the creaturely beyond species-distinctions. In 鈥渆co-translation鈥� (Cronin 2016), the belated, uneven movements these texts make from material environments of struggle to textual spaces responsive to the theoretical concerns of ecopoetics provide a medium for thinking biosemiotic entanglements in trans-cultural and -historical ways. But to propose a 鈥渢ranslational鈥� guerrilla ecopoetics confronts Anglophone environmental traditions with the intertwined emergencies of decolonial struggle and the unevenly distributed consequences of contemporary earth-systems breakdown, suggesting juster interweavings of language and world.

Zoe Skoulding, 鈥淏irds of North America: Birdsong and the Borders of Language鈥�

: Birdsong, although often drowned out by human activity, is a widespread aural experience of other species as well as a gauge of ecological change. With reference to ideas about translation and relation drawn from Walter Benjamin and 脡douard Glissant, as well as Karen Barad鈥檚 comments on how the world makes itself 'differentially intelligible', this talk will attend to the insistent presence of birds in contemporary US poetry, exploring its relationship to languages and borders in colonial and neocolonial contexts. Don Mee Choi鈥檚 鈥楽ky Translation鈥� in DMZ Colony juxtaposes the initially baffling noise of American snow geese with the heavily militarized frontier between North and South Korea, using it to explore the border between language, sound and image. While Nathaniel Mackey鈥檚 鈥楽ong of the Andoumboulou: 285鈥� riffs off the medieval Persian poet Far墨d al-D墨n A峁�峁�膩r to imagine 鈥榯he birds we were or the birds we鈥檇 be鈥� as a potential future for humans rooted in ancient song, Layli Long Soldier鈥檚 references to dead or absent birds, from her Oglala Lakota perspective, mark points of political resistance. Drawing attention both to the multiplicity of human languages and to non-semantic sound, birds and birdsong bring to the poem a call to new forms of ecological awareness.

EHN Roundtable: The Impact of Covid on Environmental Humanities Research
Friday, 18 December 2020, 2-4pm (MS Teams)
This roundtable offers EHN researchers based at 糖心TV the opportunity to discuss the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on their research, both practical and conceptual.

2019-20

Seminar series: 鈥淓xcavating the Anthropocene鈥�

A series of research seminars organised during the academic year 2019-2020 on the theme of 鈥淓xcavating the Anthropocene.鈥� Our program is supported through an IAS Award with the aim of establishing Environmental Humanities as a new field of cross-disciplinary research at 糖心TV.

Our 2019-20 research series engages participants from several fields in the arts, humanities and related disciplines in order to bring critical humanist perspectives to environmental research. The humanities, as a body of disciplines concerned with human culture, bring indispensable critical frameworks to an unfolding crisis born out of class conflict, cultural contestation and cross-species entanglements. In particular, the humanities can offer a crucial excavation of assumptions at work inside the Anthropocene, as it develops under a geo-historical and world-ecological rubric, and potentially as a program, for global environmental consciousness.

Denial of the ecological emergency can be attributed to resistance from vested interests, but also to challenges inherent to ecological communication, including a perceived difficulty in conceiving the scale required by 鈥淎nthropocene鈥� thinking. To address these challenges, over the course of each term a series of seminars will treat a different aspect of 鈥渆xcavating the Anthropocene鈥�: 鈥淰isualising the Anthropocene鈥� (Term 1) takes up the task of representing Anthropocenic phenomena across a range of visual media, while 鈥淪ounding the Anthropocene鈥� (Term 2) focuses particularly on the contribution of sound and performance to this epoch's sensory registration. A further program on 鈥淐onceptualising the Anthropocene鈥� scheduled for Term 3 was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

These seminars are supported through an IAS Award and with the co-sponsorship of CIM (Center for Interdisciplinary Methodologies), the CRPLA (the Centre for Research in Philosophy, Literature and the Arts), the HRC (Humanities Research Centre) and Critical Environments (Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies).

  Weds, 20 November 2019, 5-7pm,
  • Abstract:

This paper examines the genre of the postcard – a popular technology for the transmission of memory – in order to understand the spatiotemporal politics of Anthropocene imagining. I鈥檓 particularly interested in apocalyptic visions of environmental futurity that borrow images of contemporary Third World poverty and ecological degradation in order to posit them as the First World鈥檚 future. While Europe鈥檚 others were once seen as inhabiting a lesser past, now they鈥檙e seen as inhabiting its projected future inferior. The consequences of carbon accumulation in the future are imagined to look a lot like being on the wrong end of capital accumulation in the present, with little acknowledgement of the shared but uneven history that joins them. These are among the thought grooves of the status quo that are so difficult to escape, at least from within the inertia of the fossil-fueled 鈥渃hain of ease.鈥� Like so much else, the future will be unevenly distributed.

Evelyn Araluen - 鈥淭eleological Conflict in Indigenous Climate Poetics鈥�:

The accelerated and disproportionate effects of human-induced climate change on Indigenous homelands and communities in the Oceanic region present Indigenous writers with a teleological conflict between the looming threat of environmental apocalypse, and the cultural and geographic forces of deep ancestral time and inheritance. Indigenous women speaking from this site are closing distance between theory and practice in the global climate justice struggle while emphasising custodial and matrilineal responsibilities alongside transindigenous relations of collaboration and solidarity. In charting these concerns and connections in the writing of saltwater Indigenous women of Oceania, including Kathy Jet帽il-Kijiner, Ellen Van Neerven and Alexis Wright among others, this paper seeks to explore diverse forms of transferral, refusal, and continuity across fluid and adaptive modes of literariness.

Jonathan Dunk - 鈥淧yrocumulus: Making Our Own Weather in Narrative鈥�:

Paraphrasing Fredric Jameson, Mark Fisher wrote in Capitalist Realism (2009) that it鈥檚 become easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism – an observation recently literalized by the environmental catastrophes of climate change. This argument looks at the narratival failures and lacunae which characterize the coverage of anthropogenic weather events, including the currently raging fires in Australia. It further situates the radical inability to countenance the eschatological dimensions of climate change within the context of the theories of time, narrative and modernity articulated by Jameson, Agamben and Ricoeur.

• Marcus Boon (York University, Toronto), 鈥淰ibration-In-Itself: Sound, Humanism and the Anthropocene鈥�

  Wednesday 5 February 2019, 5-7pm,

  • Abstract:

Is music, when made by humans, necessarily part of an anthropocene project? At first thought, it might seem that John Cage鈥檚 realigning of music with 鈥渢he sounds themselves,鈥� and minimal human intervention set the stage for a non-anthropocentric practice of music, albeit at the expense of much of what made music what it is. In this talk I will discuss the ideas and work of Catherine Christer Hennix and her concept of 鈥渁nanthropic sound鈥� – and the difficult topic of a vibrational ontology, and how one might think of vibration from the site of 鈥渂eing qua being.鈥� I will ask what it might mean to think about 鈥渧ibration-in-itself鈥� – are there generalized models of periodicity, of oscillation between the non- and the not-non that apply across media, models and experiences? Drawing on recent work by Badiou, Agamben and Latour concerning ideas of a modal ontology, I will examine what our understanding of modality in music tells us about the broader issues here.
