| book description |

ENG A wide-ranging and original introduction to the Anthropocene (the Age of Humanity) that offers fresh, theoretical insights bridging the sciences and the humanities. Using history, art, literature, religion, philosophy, ethics, and justice as the focal points, Merchant traces key figures and developments in the humanities throughout the Anthropocene era and explores how these disciplines might influence sustainability in the next century. Wide-ranging and accessible, this book from an eminent scholar in environmental history and philosophy argues for replacing the Age of the Anthropocene with a new Age of Sustainability. RUS Могут ли история, искусство, литература, религия, философия, этика и правосудие повлиять на экологическую устойчивость в следующем столетии? Задаваясь этим вопросом, Кэролин Мёрчант исследует взаимодействие традиционных областей человеческой мысли и экологии. Ее масштабная и доступная книга позволяет увидеть неизбежность смены эпохи антропоцена новой эпохой устойчивого развития.
