El siglo XXI ha sido descrito por muchos acad???micos medioambientales como el siglo en el que la humanidad tendr??? que enfrentarse a su mayor reto, y la prueba m???s evidente quiz???s sean las ramificaciones de la crisis clim???tica. Esta colecci???n biling???e refleja perspectivas diferentes de visualizar un cambio eco-social hacia una sociedad m???s justa y sostenible. Reflexiones sobre las inferencias filos???ficas de las utop???as, el ecofeminismo, la biopol???tica y la biom???mesis se juntan con fotograf???a y documentales participativos. "Visualizando el cambio: Humanidades ambientales" comienza con un texto escrito por uno los ensayistas sobre filosof???a ambiental m???s importantes de Espa???a, Jorge Reichmann. Los an???lisis literarios van desde mitos cl???sicos a tradiciones orales, incluyendo referencias a tradiciones frecuentemente olvidadas como las de But???n o Croacia. En lugar de imitar estudios te???ricos y globales como han hecho libros recientes que versan sobre humanidades ambientales, esta colecci???n tiene varias caracter???sticas originales, que comprenden abundantes referencias a mitos y cap???tulos sobre eco-traducci???n. Esta colecci???n refleja una amplia variedad de enfoques; destaca la b???squeda de nuevas perspectivas para visualizar un mundo mejor por j???venes acad???micos, y ser??? de inter???s para acad???micos, investigadores y profesores interesados en las humanidades ambientales desde puntos de vista filos???ficos, literarios o art???sticos. Adem???s, ecologistas, activistas, artistas y pol???ticos locales pueden encontrar informaci???n sobre c???mo las humanidades pueden contribuir a la causa medioambiental. The 21st century has been described by many environmental scholars as the one in which humanity will need to face its greatest challenge. The diverse ramifications of the climatic crisis are perhaps the most evident proof of this. This dual-lingual multiauthor volume reflects different perspectives of envisioning an eco-social change towards a more sustainable and just society. Musings on the philosophical implications of utopias, ecofeminism, biopolitics, and biomimicry come together with photography and participatory documentaries. "Envisioning Change: Environmental Humanities" opens with an essay from one of Spain's foremost essayists on environmental philosophy, Jorge Riechmann. Literary analyses run from classic myths to oral traditions, including references to frequently neglected traditions such as Bhutan or Croatia, in addition to Spain and the United Kingdom. Rather than emulate theoretical and overarching studies, as several of the recent books on environmental humanities, this volume has many original features, including the abundant references to myths and chapters on eco-translation. This volume reflects a wide variety of approaches and particularly highlights the search of younger scholars for new approaches to envision a better world. It would hold appeal for scholars, researchers and teachers interested in the environmental humanities from either a philosophical, literary or artistic perspective. Moreover, environmentalists, activists, artists, and local politicians may also be interested in how the humanities can contribute to the wider environmental cause.
