In 2022, I joined the High Theory podcast as a guest. We talked about early modern representations of environmental catastrophe with Kim Adams, an ACLS Emerging Voices Fellow. Subjects range from Hannah Arendt and N.K. Jemisin, The Comedy of Errors, and the Ex-voto of Cuzco’s 1650 Earthquake, and we optimistically speculate whether that environmental catastrophe will save us. We survey important work in the environmental humanities by premodern scholars, such as Geoffrey Parker and Dagomar Degroot on the Little Ice Age in Early Modern Europe, Gerard Passannante’s work on Catastrophizing, and Gavin Bailey on the Andean Baroque, as well as Amitav Ghosh’s recent work The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable and Rebecca Solnit’s A Paradise Built in Hell.

  • As a host for the New Books Network, I have interviewed scholars about their work, with a particular focus on critical race studies, the environmental humanities, and early modern literature.
