Routledge have published a new book in their Green Media series by our very own Dr Alan Wright. Film and the Natural History of Destruction: Walter Benjamin for the Anthropocene addresses several areas of crucial importance for contemporary film and media studies: biopolitics and ecological catastrophe, cultural memory and film in the Anthropocene, media archaeology and the environmental humanities and, of course, the abiding relevance of Walter Benjamin’s work for critical theory and film studies.
The book is also available as an open access text through Knowledge Unlatched
