This article aims to show how planetary comparativism, inspired by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, can be used as a framework that embraces the alienating state of the world. Herein, I study how intimate and planetary perspectives melt together in the neogothic feminist novels of Hang Kang and Samanta Schweblin. I thus conclude that planetarity can function both as planetary perspectives within novels but also as an alienating planetary reading strategy.

Ifølge den engelske arkitekturteoretiker Keller Easterling markerer året 1869 begyndelsen på en ny æra i den imperiale kapitalismes historie. Easterling bestemmer denne æra som “infrastrukturens paradigme” og nævner den transkontinentale amerikanske jernbane og åbningen af Suez Kanalen som åbenlyse eksempler. Den iransk-amerikanske infrastrukturforsker Laleh Khalili har dog foreslået, at udviklingen af telegrafiske søkabler også skal føjes til denne liste. Det er præcis denne infrastrukturelle og teknologiske udvikling (jernbaner, udgravninger og telegrafiske netværk), der udgør bagtæppet i den franske forfatter Jules Vernes berømte roman om den engelske eventyrer Phileas Foggs væddemål om at rejse Jorden rundt på 80 dage (1872). Artiklen analyserer romanen i dens infrastrukturelle, teknologihistoriske og imperiale kontekst og foreslår, at romanformen i perioden transformeres af såvel 1800-tallets kulturindustrielle kredsløb som af de nye kommunikationsteknologier.

With the breakthrough of the space industry after World War II, it became possible for the first time to view the Earth from space, resulting in two of the most spectacular images in history, “Earthrise” (1968) and “The Blue Marble” (1972). Building on these images and the new sensitivity to the Earth that emerged as a result of space technologies and satellite-based observations of the planet during the Cold War, the article argues that German writer Günter Kunert (1929-2019) was one of the few who understood from the very beginning the importance and significance of this “Copernican revolution of the gaze”, and that in his poetry from the early 1960s onwards, he continuously explored man’s place in the cosmos in the age of space travel.

By examining river motifs in the works of Jean-Antoine de Baïf, Michel de Montaigne, and Samuel de Champlain, this article discusses rivers in the French Renaissance as a destabilizing figure, which questions human position within a nonhuman environment.

This article explores how Karl Ove Knausgård, in his ongoing Morning Star-series (2020-), incorporates a planetary perspective on the consequences of the climate crisis. Within his series, he introduces a time where no one dies, prompting reflections on the reasons behind morality and the potentialchallenges to Earth's ecosystem if death were to disappear or if humans lived significantly longer. The narrative adopts an estranged perspective to shed light on tendencies in our current society that may contribute to the climate catastrophe, highlighting mankind's role as a destructive geological force.

This article offers a reading of Herman Bang’s Novel De uden Fædreland – (Those Without a Nation–) under the perspective of the so-called “Yellow Peril”, a wide- spread theory at the beginning of the 20th century, which believed that Europe was threatened by a pan-Asian movement. The article claims that Bang’s fear of Asia and of European decline is mixed with a certain sympathy for Buddhism and the idea of resignation.
