Eco-theory and Annihilation is part of the Film Theory in Practice series, which blends the explanation of a film theory with the interpretation of a film and provides discrete examples of how film theory can serve as the basis for textual analysis. This book offers a concise introduction to eco-theory in jargon-free language and shows how this theory can be deployed to interpret Alex Garland's controversial film adaptation of Jeff VanderMeer's hit novel Annihilation.

Eco-theory is one of the most exciting and timely offshoots of contemporary critical theory, but it is too frequently treated as only a recent development. Covering historical developments in nature philosophy, geology, and organic chemistry, as well as contemporary critical methodologies like systems theory and new materialism, Eco-Theory and Annihilation introduces readers to the full extent of eco-theory's lively variations, as well as investigates the complications that arise when those variations are mediated by the generic expectations of filmic science fiction. This book illuminates the deep history of eco-theory, maps its contemporary coordinates, and demonstrates how it can shed light on Garland's provocative eco-sci-fi thriller.

Recenzijas

Eco-Theory and Annihilation provides a masterful, philosophically informed, and up-to-date overview of the expanding field of eco-theory and its major thinkers. In addition, by pairing eco-theory with practical ecocriticism of Garlands film version of VanderMeers novel Annihilation, it discloses the indispensability of particular contexts of lived experience and practice. Eco-Theory and Annihilation provides us with new ecological thinking needed to cope with life in the Anthropocene and to rethink what it means to be human. * Monika Kaup, Professor, English, University of Washington, USA * Evan Gottliebs book takes a deep-time approach to eco-theory in order to draw out, in scene-by-scene, and often shot-by-shot, analyses of the most important implications of Alex Garlands film Annihilation, the willingly unfaithful adaptation of Jeff VanderMeers novel. Through concepts such as Donna Haraways making kin, Stacy Alaimos transcorporeality, and the authors own carbon-heavy masculinity, Garlands film is used to argue for an increased realization of the messy and entangled nature of the world in which humanity finds itself. * Brian Willems, Associate Professor, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Split, Croatia *
