Aidan Tynan 
Desert in Modern Literature and Philosophy [EPUB ebook] 
Wasteland Aesthetics

Ajutor

Aidan Tynan provocatively rethinks some of the core assumptions of ecocriticism and the environmental humanities. Showing the significance of deserts and wastelands in literature since the Romantics, he argues that the desert has served to articulate anxieties over the cultural significance of space in the Anthropocene. He explores the ways in which Nietzsche’s warning that ‘the desert grows’ has been taken up by Heidegger, Derrida and Deleuze in their critiques of modernity. And he looks at how the desert has been a terrain of desire over which the Western imagination of space and place has range, in writings from T.S Eliot to Don De Lillo, from imperial travel writing to postmodernism; and from the Old Testament to salvagepunk.
