In The End of the Anthropocene, Michael J. Gormley examines late-stage anthropocene literature and the imagining of the astropocene. Focusing on science fiction literature, Gormley frames a changing ecoethic for the end of the anthropocene.
In The End of the Anthropocene, Michael J. Gormley examines literary imaginations of the anthropocene’s end and the future of the astropocene. Gormley analyzes literary images of human tracks on Earth, the Moon, and Mars to characterize the late-stage anthropocene and to explore humanity’s role in the universal ecosystem. The End of the Anthropocene uses a predictive and paradigmatic model of ecocriticism, examining science fiction works as interplanetary nature narratives.
