The Anthropocene, as a significant era of both geological and civilizational change, challenges traditional notions of corporeal integrity, wholeness, and immunity. The interdisciplinary workshop aims to explore specific instances of interplay between bodies, landscapes, and large-scale earthly transformations in literature, culture, and theory. In this way, we seek to examine the contemporary clash of scales as an ongoing negotiation of blurry bodies continuously changing into novel, yet to be theorized forms.

This workshop is part of the FWF-funded project „Landschaft, Leben, Form. Eine Poetik des Anthropozäns“.
