Anthropocene Poetics

Book • 2019
Anthropocene Poetics examines how contemporary poetry and literature represent a world transformed by human planetary influence.

David Farrier considers deep time, geological processes, extinction, climate change, and the material traces humans leave behind.

The book asks how literary forms can make vast temporal scales emotionally and ethically imaginable.

Its discussion of rocks and material objects emphasizes that physical matter can carry durations and histories exceeding individual human experience.

In the episode, Jake Skeets invokes Farrier’s argument that holding a rock can mean holding time.
