Dansk grønlandslitteratur og jagten på det antropocæne
Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › fagfællebedømt
This article examines the role of climate change and the Anthropo-cene in contemporary Danish literature about Greenland. I argue that even though Danish literature in general has been very concer-ned with anthropogenic climate change in recent years, this is not the case for Danish literature specifically about Greenland. To illu-strate this, I begin with a short literary overview, after which I focus on the novel Korsveje i Nord (2015) by Bjarne Ljungdahl. This book, I define as an example of cli-fi (“climate fiction” or “climate change fiction”) that does engage with Greenland, and I analyze its view on the Anthropocene. Following this main part of the article, I briefly discuss what potentials cli-fi’s such as Korsveje i Nord might hold in the discussion of anthropogenic climate change and the Anthropo-cene, and I turn my attention to literature about Greenland from outside Denmark.
