Abstract

This essay explores what I call an Anthropocene viewing condition, a contemporary spectator position in which images of nature, particularly moving images of natures past, resonate with present and future environmental loss. Analyzing natural disaster melodramas such as The Trail of ’98 (1928) and Deluge (1933) alongside popular science films about glaciers from the 1920s, I explore endangerment as both an explicit and latent structure of feeling in the Anthropocene.

人类世的观察条件
这篇文章探讨了我所说的人类世的观看条件,这是一种当代观众的立场,其中自然的图像,特别是过去自然的动态图像,与现在和未来的环境损失产生共鸣。通过分析自然灾害的情节剧,如《98的踪迹》(1928)和《大洪水》(1933),以及20世纪20年代关于冰川的科普电影,我探索了人类世中作为一种显性和隐性情感结构的濒危。
