SUMMARY:Ecology\, Memory\, Poetry: Reading Paul Celan in the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:The Lab for Environmental Narrative Strategies (LENS) and the Working Group in Memory Studies present: Ecology\, Memory\, Poetry: Reading Paul Celan in the Anthropocene \nPaul Celan\, one of the most important poets of post-World War II literature\, is famous for his lyrical engagements with memory and the Holocaust. In recent years\, he has also been read as a poet who addresses some of the most fundamental issues of environmental thought and writing in the Anthropocene: deep time\, altered landscapes\, new materialisms\, posthumanisms\, expressions of more-than-human loss\, and poetry in its relation to geology. This roundtable brings together two experts on Celan and the environmental humanities – Jason Groves and Paweł Piszczatowski–with a poet and researcher\, Rachel Kaufman\, to explore Celan as an environmental poet. \nA roundtable with: \nJason Groves (University of Washington)\nAuthor of The Geological Unconscious: German Literature and Mineral Imaginary (2020) \nRachel Kaufman (UCLA)\nAuthor of Many to Remember (2021) \nPaweł Piszczatowski (University of Warsaw)\nAuthor of Chthonic Shards: Paul Celan’s Poetics of Earth (2026) \nModerators: Ursula K. Heise and Michael Rothberg \nCo-Sponsored by the Department of English
