Subjunctive Aesthetics: Mexican Cultural Production in the Era of Climate Change Lecture
A Two-Part Event with Carolyn Fornoff
In this lecture, Carolyn Fornoff will discuss her recent book,
Subjunctive Aesthetics: Mexican Cultural Production in the Era of Climate Change (Vanderbilt Press, 2024). Her book assesses contemporary trends in the representation of environmental crisis in order to suggest that there has been a shift away from evidentiary modes focused on proving the existence of environmental harms, to more “subjunctive” modes that imagine the world as it could be or should be.
