Paperback. Condition: New. Fracking - tar-sand runoff - dirty oil extraction. This is the language of our oil-addicted 21st century society: incredibly invasive, blatant in its purpose, and richly embedded in mythological and archetypal symbolism. The ultimate goal of the industry: To core the underworld.Endangered Hydrocarbons, Lesley Battler's first full-length collection of poetry, shows that the language of hydrocarbon extraction, with its blend of sexual imagery, archetype, science, pseudoscience and the purely speculative, can be as addictive as the resource it pursues.Using pastiche and wordplay, Battler shines a floodlight on the absurdity and pervasiveness of production language in all areas of human life in the oil fields, including art, culture and politics. Incorporating texts generated by a multinational oil company, and spliced with a variety of found material (video games, home decor magazines, works by Henry James and Carl Jung), Battler deliberately tampers with her found material, treating it as crude oil--excavating, mixing, and drilling these texts to emulate extraction processes used by the industry.With traces of Dennis Lee's Testament, Larissa Lai's Automaton Biographies, and Adam Dickinson's The Polymers, this lively and refreshing take on a polarizing topic will resonate with readers of contemporary poetry who connect with environmental issues and capitalist critique.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The third edition of Dialectics of Force: Ontobia presents Alex Battler's reconceptualization of Force as a fundamental category of being. Drawing on a wide range of sources-from Pre-Socratic philosophy and Aristotle through Hegel, Schelling, and twentieth-century physicists and cosmologists-the author traces how the concept of Force has been understood throughout the history of Western thought and proposes a unified theoretical framework grounded in the concept of Ontological Force, or Ontóbia.The author argues that Ontóbia constitutes the fourth fundamental attribute of matter, alongside motion, space, and time, and demonstrates its application across several domains: Big Bang cosmology, the boundary between organic and inorganic phenomena, the mind-body problem, and the methodological foundations of historical progress and the social sciences.The book is addressed to scholars and graduate students in philosophy, the natural sciences, and the social sciences, as well as to readers interested in the foundational questions of matter, life, mind, and progress.…
