Towards an ecofeminist ecriture feminine : poetic responses to climate grief under patriarchal and anthropocentric hegemony

研究问题：生态女性主义的“文学女性化”（“女性写作”）的概念能否为一种超越人类的方法论的发展提供信息，以挑战父权和人类中心主义的霸权？作为对气候危机的整体反应的一部分，这种方法如何被用来发展对气候悲伤的创造性反应，这种反应利用了纠缠的概念，同时也挑战了语言的霸权结构？本文以生态女性主义的“女性化文学”的形式进行写作——以被压迫和被压抑的“女性化的他者”的语言为中心进行写作。在反思人类中心主义和父权制的相互联系的同时，本文将气候悲伤作为一种纠缠的叙述。认识到混合写作是“女性文学”的特征，我使用诗意的“自述”，这是一种混合的写作类型。受玛吉·纳尔逊（Maggie Nelson）自传体理论作品《阿尔戈英雄》（The Argonauts, 2015）的启发，我用诗歌和抒情散文来描述气候悲伤。通过一种超越人类的方法，步行方法可以促进运动，并体现在景观中，唤起个人的失落感。这激发了围绕气候悲伤的亲密叙事的自由写作，被认为必然与其他形式的悲伤纠缠在一起，然后发展成诗歌和抒情散文。此外，这一自述理论反映了生态女性主义哲学如何在生态危机时期为人类/非人类纠缠的重新想象提供信息。作为一个混合的创造性工作，这篇论文谈到了对二元结构的构建的拒绝，这两个生态女性主义和精神分析女性主义方法都是核心。在我的研究中，我有两个独特的贡献：1。通过发展一种独特的超越人类的方法论，在“生态女性主义文学女性化”的概念中综合了女权主义的方法。通过原创创作作品的发展，将气候悲伤呈现为一种纠缠的体验，突出人类/非人类的关系，以及不同形式的悲伤的相互联系

Research QuestionsHow can the concept of an ecofeminist 'ecriture feminine' ('feminine writing') inform the development of a more-than-human methodology that challenges bothpatriarchal and anthropocentric hegemonies?How might this methodology be used to develop creative responses to climate grief, which leverage notions of entanglement while also challenging hegemonic structures of language, as part of a holistic response to the climate crisis?This thesis uses writing in the form of an ecofeminist 'ecriture feminine' - writing centring the language of the oppressed and repressed 'feminised other'. While reflecting on the interconnectedness of anthropocentrism and patriarchy, this thesis presents climate grief as a narrative of entanglements. Recognising hybrid writing as characteristic of 'ecriture feminine', I use poetic "autotheory", a hybrid genre of writing. Inspired by Maggie Nelson's autotheoretical work 'The Argonauts' (2015), I use poetic verse and lyric essays to present accounts of climate grief. Using a more-than-human methodology, walking methods are used to facilitate movement through, and embodiment in, landscapes which invoke personal feelings of loss. This inspires freewriting around intimate narratives of climate grief, conceived of as necessarily entangled with other forms of grief, which is then developed into poetry and lyric essays. Additionally, this autotheory reflects on how ecofeminist philosophy can inform reimaginings of human/non-human entanglements during a time of ecological crisis. As a hybrid creative work, this thesis speaks to a rejection of the construction of binaries central to both an ecofeminist and psychoanalytic feminist approach. I offer two unique contributions in my research: 1. Through the development of a unique more-than-human methodology that synthesises feminist approaches in the concept of an 'ecofeminist ecriture feminine' 2. Through the development of original creative work that presents climate grief as an experience of entanglement, highlighting human/non-human relationality, as well as the interconnectedness of different forms of grief
