Emphasizing the role that vivid personalities – including engineers John Laing Weller and Alex Grant as well as contractors and labourers – played in the construction of the canal, Roberta Styran and Robert Taylor use archival sources, government documents, newspapers, maps, and original plans to describe a saga of technological, financial, geographical, and social obstacles met and overcome in an accomplishment akin to the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway. A story of Canadian skill, courage, vision, and hardship, This Colossal Project details the twenty-year excavation of the giant channel and the creation of huge concrete locks amidst war, the Great Depression, political change, and labour unrest.

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com.Water is the element that, more than any other, ties human beings in to the world around them – from the oceans that surround us to the water that makes up most of our bodies. Exploring the cultural and philosophical implications of this fact, Bodies of Water develops an innovative new mode of posthuman feminist phenomenology that understands our bodies as being fundamentally part of the natural world and not separate from or privileged to it.Building on the works by Luce Irigaray, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Gilles Deleuze, Astrida Neimanis’s book is a landmark study that brings a new feminist perspective to bear on ideas of embodiment and ecological ethics in the posthuman critical moment.

In How to Weather Together, Astrida Neimanis and Jennifer Mae Hamilton develop an innovative model for climate change mitigation and adaptation that brings together climate justice and community engagement. Translating feminist theory into practice, they demonstrate how we can gradually change the world as the world changes us.Drawing on a rich and varied history of feminist, queer and anticolonial scholarship, Neimanis and Hamilton propose 'weathering' as both a theoretical framework and a set of practical tools for responding to environmental catastrophe. They ask how we can reckon with existential crisis through playful, low-tech practice by connecting the planetary to the personal.With photographs and a series of illustrated weathering activities throughout, the book turns academic concepts into practical, hands-on guidance for community groups, artists, students, researchers, and others. It shows how climate adaptation requires building better social infrastructures for our shared but different worlds.

Tämja. Tänja. Tänka. Tre verb som drar åt olika håll. Att tämja är att försöka hålla något. Att tänja är att pröva dess gränser. Att tänka är att stanna i rörelsen mellan dem. Tämja Tänja Tänka är en antologi som vuxit fram ur Textivals litteraturfestival 2026. Här samlas nyskriven poesi, essäer och formexperiment där etablerade och ännu inte etablerade författare möts i olika litterära praktiker. Texterna rör sig mellan kropp och vatten, mellan minne och missbruk, mellan mirakel och tid. Vi rör oss genom städer och deras utkanter, från höjdhopparen som bränner huden för nära solen till mikroorganismernas outtröttliga arbete i vattenreningsverken. Genom stängda hjärtan och en socialarbetare vars empati tänjs till bristningsgränsen. Texterna frågar hur vi lever med varandra, med språket och med det som inte låter sig ordnas. I boken presenteras två poeter på svenska för första gången: Gustav Parker Hibbett och Giedrė Kazlauskaitė, i översättning av Judith Kiros respektive Liana Ruokytė-Jonsson. Här finns också den inflytelserika essän Hydrofeminism av Astrida Neimanis samt en nyskriven essä av Mara Lee om slutet, tiden och skrivandets villkor genom läsningar av Marguerite Duras. Antologin rör sig genom försök att tämja kroppen, språket, det som rinner och det som skaver, och genom rörelser som tänjer föreställningar om hur vi hänger ihop med varandra och med det som omger oss. Boken är en fortsättning på festivalens möten och samtal. Allt ryms inte mellan pärmar, men något kan stanna kvar. En plats där texter och tankar får fortsätta pågå tillsammans.
