Living on a damaged planet challenges who we are and where we live. This timely anthology calls on twenty eminent humanists and scientists to revitalize curiosity observation and transdisciplinary conversation about life on earth. As human-induced environmental change threatens multispecies livability Arts of Living on a Damaged Planet puts forward a bold proposal: entangled histories situated narratives and thick descriptions offer urgent “arts of living.” Included are essays by scholars in anthropology ecology science studies art literature and bioinformatics who posit critical and creative tools for collaborative survival in a more-than-human Anthropocene. The essays are organized around two key figures that also serve as the publication’s two openings: Ghosts or landscapes haunted by the violences of modernity and Monsters or interspecies and intraspecies sociality. Ghosts and Monsters are tentacular windy and arboreal arts that invite readers to encounter ants lichen rocks electrons flying foxes salmon chestnut trees mud volcanoes border zones graves radioactive waste-in short the wonders and terrors of an unintended epoch.
