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“女性生态仪式”(“女性写作”)的概念如何促进一种更人性化的方法论的发展，以挑战父权和人类中心的霸权？如何利用这种方法对气候悲痛做出创造性的回应，利用纠缠的概念，同时挑战语言的霸权结构，作为应对气候危机的整体措施的一部分？本文使用生态女性主义“女性生态仪式”的写作形式--以受压迫和压抑的“女性化的他者”的语言为中心的写作。在反思人类中心主义和父权制的相互联系的同时，本文将气候悲痛描述为一种纠缠的叙事。我认识到混合写作是“女性主义”的特征，所以我使用了诗意的“自体理论”，这是一种混合的写作体裁。受玛吉·纳尔逊(Maggie Nelson)2015年出版的自传体理论著作《阿尔戈宇航员》的启发，我用诗句和抒情散文来呈现对气候悲痛的描述。使用比人类更多的方法，步行方法被用来促进在引发个人失落感的风景中的移动和体现。这激发了围绕气候悲痛的亲密叙事的自由写作，这些悲痛被认为必然与其他形式的悲痛纠缠在一起，然后发展成诗歌和抒情散文。此外，这一自体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/非人类的纠缠提供重新想象的信息。作为一部混合创作的作品，这篇论文论述了对生态女性主义和精神分析女性主义方法核心的二元结构的拒绝。在我的研究中，我提供了两个独特的贡献：1.通过发展一种独特的、比人类更多的方法论，将女权主义的方法综合在一个概念中--生态女性主义女性仪式--2.通过发展原创作品，将气候悲伤呈现为一种纠缠的经历，突出人/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
