  • Living Entanglements and the Ecological Thought in the Works Of
    LIVING ENTANGLEMENTS AND THE ECOLOGICAL THOUGHT IN THE WORKS OF PAUL KINGSNORTH, TOM MCCARTHY, AND ALI SMITH By Garrett Joseph Peace James J. Arnett Andrew D. McCarthy Associate Professor of English Associate Professor of English (Chair) (Committee Member) Heather M. Palmer Associate Professor of English (Committee Member) LIVING ENTANGLEMENTS AND THE ECOLOGICAL THOUGHT IN THE WORKS OF PAUL KINGSNORTH, TOM MCCARTHY, AND ALI SMITH By Garrett Joseph Peace A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of Arts: English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee May 2021 ii ABSTRACT In my thesis, I use the work of Donna Haraway, Timothy Morton, Karen Barad, and Anna Tsing to explore how three contemporary British novelists—Paul Kingsnorth, Tom McCarthy, and Ali Smith—deal with the representational and ethical challenges of writing about nature and climate change within the Anthropocene. The question of how to live and write now is a prominent thread in all their works, which show, in both form and content, the entanglements of ecology, materiality, locality, nationality, and personal identity. In doing so, their stories enable readers to engage with what Morton calls the “ecological thought,” i.e. “a practice and process of becoming fully aware of how human beings are connected with other beings,” and provoke us, as Haraway puts it, “to be truly present . as mortal critters entwined in myriad unfinished configurations of places, times, matters, meanings.” iii DEDICATION For my parents, Robin and James. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS As many of the writers present in these pages show us, to be human is to exist in a state of interconnection.

  • 1 Philosophical Films
    Philosophical Films (Expository Writing 20, section 235) Fall 2019 Classroom: Sever 104 Meeting Times: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 3:00-4:15pm Course Website: https://canvas.harvard.edu/courses/60923 Ben Roth [email protected] Office: 1 Bow Street, #237 Office Hours: Thursdays 1:30-2:30pm. No office hours on days between when drafts are handed in and end of conferences. I’m also almost always available to talk right after class. Course Description: How should society be organized? What should individuals do when they disagree with the reigning order? Protest? Revolt? Withdraw? Our class will approach these perennial philosophical questions though a number of recent films. At the beginning of the semester, we will watch Sophie Barthes's Cold Souls, Boots Riley's Sorry to Bother You, and Bong Joon-ho's Snowpiercer, which in very different settings—affluent New York City, the gentrifying Bay area, and a frozen post-apocalyptic world—offer critiques of the stratification of wealth and opportunity between haves and have- nots. As students develop their interpretations of one of these films in their first paper, we will also learn the basic vocabulary of cinematography and editing. Then, in the middle of the semester, we will consider the stories of two individuals who, alienated from society, decide to recede from it, examining their own lives in minute detail instead. In Tom McCarthy's cult-classic novel Remainder and video artist Omer Fast's adaptation of it, a man is pathologically compelled to reenact a (possibly false) memory of a time when he felt authentic; he then begins, very strangely, to reenact moments from other people’s lives.

And I just thought of another a minute ago. They cover pretty much all genres. And hopefully vintages. Though it takes a while for something to become a classic. The categorizing symbols are something that I ‘borrowed’ from Neil French, and his: ‘cut! 100 greatest movie scenes’. But was granted permission. Thanks Neil. Though the icons are just rough guides.

  • 'Dwelling' in Contemporary British and American Fiction: Zadie Smith, Tom
    1 ‘Dwelling’ in Contemporary British and American Fiction: Zadie Smith, Tom McCarthy, Don DeLillo Oliver Paynel Royal Holloway, University of London PhD October 2018 2 3 Declaration of Authorship I, Oliver Paynel, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 4 5 Abstract This thesis argues that the pursuit of dwelling has become a key imperative for life in the spaces of contemporary literary fiction. Heidegger characterised dwelling as a form of life-building stemming from attachment to, and immersion in, a particular environment. This project explores dwelling in what Lauren Berlant has called the continually ‘overwhelming’ present of late modernity, in contexts where subjects navigate the persistent threat of existential dereliction or homelessness posed by historical trauma, loss or cultural alienation in an ongoing process once described by Heidegger as the ‘plight of dwelling’. Extending what Tim Ingold has subsequently called the ‘dwelling perspective’ into the field of novel theory, the thesis develops current research into the ‘persistence of dwelling’ in the novel form (Farred and López) through comparative study of novels by Zadie Smith, Tom McCarthy and Don DeLillo. It examines dwelling as an embodied mode of navigating and living within a world of diverse afflictions, attachments and involvements in these writers’ works, to show how the relations between human, non-human and narrative elements build the lifeworlds of contemporary fiction. The thesis examines Zadie Smith’s London fiction to show how modes of dwelling are cultivated through encounters between subjects and the narrative elements that shape their social environments, with a particular focus on mood, ethical attunement, empathy, worldliness and cosmopolitanism.
