Abstract

Through a wide range of case studies, objects of analysis and critical preoccupations, with this collection of essays we intend to “take a critical look at where we stand, reigniting the conversation around extreme weather events, climate change, and sea level rise, ” (Sunde 2020, 202) and we would like our readers to participate in this collective reflection, going at the root of ecocrises in order to raise awareness about an “elsewhere catastrophe” that is already and has always been here (Brickhouse 2022).
