Title A name given to the resource Affective geographies and the anthropocene: Reading shubhangi swarups latitudes of longing Subject The topic of the resource Affect Studies; Anthropocene; Ecoaesthetics; Ecocriticism; Ecological Ethic; Ecological Interconnectedness; Emotional Geographies; Latitudes Of Longing; Shubhangi Swarup Description An account of the resource This paper is a critical reading of the affective and emotional geographies imagined in the Islands plot-line of Shubhangi Swarups novel Latitudes of Longing (2018). The paper argues that Swarup presents the case of a rethinking environmental aesthetics that conveys a deeper sense of space, time, and place. By creating an ambient poetics to negotiate human and non-human interconnectedness, the paper demonstrates the strength of novelistic traditions and their potential to generate an idea of affect that is transcorporeal as one not located only in the site of the human body, instead, emanating from a more nuanced interconnectedness between the human and the non-human world. Informed by affective ecocriticism and Zayin Cabots multiple ontologies approach that generates ecologies of participation, the paper closely reads the Islands section to establish how literary illustrations provide an instance to widen the horizons of environmental engagement and generate a narrative imagination that encompasses a larger ecosystem cutting across geological spacetimes in the Anthropocene. Swarups use of fiction is critically used to generate an ecoaesthetics that leads to a more informed ethical action towards recognizing the interconnectedness of living and non-living forms that create sustainable ecologies. 2021 Journal of Dharma: Dharmaram Journal of Religions and Philosophies (DVK, Bangalore), ISSN: 0253-7222.
