Planetary Pynchon: History, Modernity, and the Anthropocene

Tore Rye Andersen

4.9/5 (9796 ratings)

Description:While Thomas Pynchon is usually described as an American author who primarily writes about American reality, Planetary History, Modernity, and the Anthropocene argues that his major novels, Gravity's Rainbow, Mason & Dixon, and Against the Day, can profitably be read as a global trilogy that presents a coherent historical account of how the emergence and spread of European modernity across the world have had devastating consequences for the planet and its inhabitants. This book sets a new agenda in Pynchon studies, charting his early anticipation of anthropocenic and planetary ideas, including globalization's demand for constant growth. It combines close textual readings with broad perspectives on large thematic arcs and stylistic developments across Pynchon's entire career as well as an extensive dialogue with the rich reception of his work.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
