Stories come to Matter: Water, Food, and other Entanglements

Aula Baratto, Universita' Cà Foscari Venezia

Stories come to Matter: Water, Food, and other Entanglements

Inspired by the introduction of Material Ecocriticism (Iovino and Oppermann), this conference aims to enrich and intensify the discussion around the complex interrelations between discourse and matter. The goal is to highlight the value of stories and imagination, outlining the vast network of agencies that dominate our material world. Specifically, we propose two entanglements from an ecocritical point of view: water and food, which are critical examples of how matter intertwines with meaning. Additionally, the conference looks forward to contributing to a discussion that has been dominant from an English-speaking perspective to new geographical areas of study such as Spain and Latin America.
