Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How gallows humor can bolster us to confront global warming We've all seen the headlines: oceans rising, historic heat waves, mass extinctions, climate refugees. It feels overwhelming, like nothing can make a difference in combating this ongoing global catastrophe. How can we mobilize to save the world when we feel this depressed Stay Cool enjoins us to laugh our way forward. Human beings have used comedy to cope with difficult realities since the beginning of recorded time-the more dismal the news, the darker the humor. Using this rich tradition of dark comedy to investigate climate change, Aaron Sachs makes the case that gallows humor, a mainstay of African Americans and Jews facing extraordinary oppression, can cultivate endurance, persistence, and solidarity in the face of calamity. Sachs surveys the macabre tradition of laughing during great suffering, from the Black Plague to the San Francisco earthquake of 1906-and offers some of the earliest examples of superlative dark comedy. He also explores how a new generation of activists and comedians are deploying dark humor to great effect, by poking fun at older people's apathy about climate catastrophes, lambasting oil corporations' 'eco' rebranding, and even producing an off-Broadway dystopian comedy called 'Sea Level Rise.' Sachs offers suggestions for how environmentalists can use dark comedy first to boost their own morale, and then to reframe their activism in more energizing and relatable ways. Environmentalism is probably the least funny social movement that's ever existed. Stay Cool seeks to change that. Will comedy save the world Not by itself, no. But it can put people in a decent enough mood to get them started on a rescue mission.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in BiographyA double portrait of two of America's most influential writers that reveals the surprising connections between themand their uncanny relevance to our age of crisisUp from the Depths tells the interconnected stories of two of the most important writers in American historythe novelist and poet Herman Melville (18191891) and one of his earliest biographers, the literary critic and historian Lewis Mumford (18951990). Deftly cutting back and forth between the writers, Aaron Sachs reveals the surprising resonances between their lives, work, and troubled timesand their uncanny relevance in our own age of crisis.The author of Moby-Dick was largely forgotten for several decades after his death, but Mumford helped spearhead Melville's revival in the aftermath of World War I and the 19181919 flu pandemic, when American culture needed a forebear with a suitably dark vision. As Mumford's career took off and he wrote books responding to the machine age, urban decay, world war, and environmental degradation, it was looking back to Melville's confrontation with crises such as industrialization, slavery, and the Civil War that helped Mumford to see his own era clearly. Mumford remained obsessed with Melville, ultimately helping to canonize him as America's greatest tragedian. But largely forgotten today is one of Mumford's key insightsthat Melville's darkness was balanced by an inspiring determination to endure.Amid today's foreboding over global warming, racism, technology, pandemics, and other crises, Melville and Mumford remind us that we've been in this struggle for a long time. To rediscover these writers today is to rediscover how history can offer hope in dark times.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 472 pp. Englisch.
