Location: Online

Anne-Sophie Bogetoft Mortensen:

Tidalectic (E)earth Poetics

This talk will present an analysis of Trinidadian Jennifer Rahim’s poetic production over the last 20 years as portraying what I will call a (E)earth poetics. In my analysis I aim to demonstrate how Rahim implements three different scales of (E)earthly catastrophes, the local, Trinidadian plantation, the cross-national earthquake, and lastly, the global, planetary concern of C02-emission, and thereby demonstrates how one might read our global climate crisis via the local (hi)stories of her own birth-island.

Anne-Sophie Bogetoft Mortensen is a PhD-fellow in Aesthetic Culture and Intercultural Studies at the Institute of Communication and Arts at Roskilde University, Denmark.

Please note the start time of 6pm for this online talk.
