WIAS Seminar Series “Humanities in the Anthropocene” Vol. 9
\nOpen Lecture \u2013 “Environmental Aesthetics: History, Theory, Politics” (February 27)<\/h4>\n

Overview<\/h5>\n

This seminar series is part of the Humanities in the Anthropocene project begun by the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study (WIAS) in October 2021. This project aims to be a place for cross-disciplinary dialogue based on the shared Anthropocene concept, an experiment in exploring new potential in the humanities by linking previously siloed specialized knowledge.<\/p>\n

The term \u201cenvironmental aesthetics\u201c is most often associated with the work of philosopher Gernot B\u00f6hme, who sought to replace the emphasis on aesthetic judgment and subject-object relations in traditional nature aesthetics with a more comprehensive understanding of environmental apperception. This talk contextualizes B\u00f6hme\u2018s approach with reference to historical predecessors and recent adaptations, for example in the New Materialism. Against this background it discusses the central assumptions of B\u00f6hme\u2018s approach and proposes some insights into the politics of aesthetic representations of the natural environment.<\/p>\n
