Stories and images of plants and landscapes in cultural productions are key sites for exposing the violent legacies of German colonialism and Nazism and for addressing contemporary forms of racism, nationalism, social and ecological injustice, and gender inequity. The novels and films discussed in this book address these key political issues in contemporary Europe and propose alternative ways for people to live together on this planet by formulating more inclusive and sustainable concepts of belonging. The book has two main objectives: to offer new approaches to contemporary literature and film from an intersectional, ecological perspective, and to form a canon. All of the works focused on, from Mo Asumang's documentary film Roots Germania (2007) through Faraz Shariat's Futur Drei (2020) and from YoÌko Tawada's novel Das nackte Auge (2004) to SasÌa StanisÌicÌ's Herkunft (2019), are by female artists, artists of color, artists who have experienced forced displacement, and/or queer artists. In five chapters, Maria Stehle reads artworks in reference to ecological systems, develops forms of eco- and social criticism based on art, and intertwines ecological and critical thinking with questions of form, affect, and aesthetics"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 650 0 $a Motion pictures $z Germany $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Plants in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Landscapes in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Ecocriticism in motion pictures. 650 0 $a German literature $y 21st century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Plants in literature. 650 0 $a Landscapes in literature. 650 0 $a Ecocriticism in literature. 650 7 $a Ecocriticism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01903083 650 7 $a German literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00941797 650 7 $a Landscapes in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01899802 650 7 $a Landscapes in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01899803 650 7 $a Motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027285 650 7 $a Plants in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066136 650 7 $a Plants in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02002500 651 7 $a Germany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210272 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Film criticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02025859 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986215 655 7 $a Film criticism. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Stehle, Maria. $t Plants, places, and power $d Rochester, New York : Camden House, 2023 $z 9781800108707 $w (DLC) 2022041300 830 0 $a Women and gender in German studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022923.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F49CF0963D8C11EE8AE814B62EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
