Beskrivning

Two Women Walking Along the Emergent Edge is a collaborative book of letters, fragments, images, and essays in which Jane Speedy and Bronwyn Davies write and make art across the climate crisis, ageing, and death, rethinking the human as more-than-human. Moving between words, paint, memory, and philosophy, the authors show what post-qualitative, new materialist practice can do: unsettle normativity, widen response-ability, and make room for grief, joy, and ethical action. Chapters range from mycelial entanglement and birdsong to land stories, heteronormativity, deep time, and a speculative “pond-weed library” at the end of time, with photographs and artworks woven through. This book is for postgraduate students, researchers, and practitioner-scholars in qualitative inquiry, arts-based research, autoethnography, collective biography, feminist theory, and environmental humanities, as well as readers outside the academy seeking serious, artful thought about life on a damaged planet.

Recensioner i media

In Two Women Walking Along the Emergent Edge, these luminous writers transport the reader back and forth both across time and place on their journeyings together. The reading adventure they take us on is enriching, enlivening, enthralling, challenging and more, as Bronwyn and Jane collaborate not only with each other but also with the multiple sensings of others: birds, a brother, the ocean, a mother, trees, a shadow. Colour, an undertaker, a snake, a cage. Stories beckon. There are all kinds of happenings.Jonathan Wyatt, Professor of Qualitative Inquiry, EdinburghSpeedy and Davies evoke embodied entanglements of collaboration and collusion with the more-than-human. Wielding theory and method with ferocity and grace, they invite the reader into the sociopoetic page to imagine new ways of being in the world with all material lives. The book is an artful and joyous entreaty to live in sympoiesis with the world. Tami Spry, co-author of Posthumanist Collaborations in Performance.
