Its contributors consider a variety of issues provoked by the sudden and pressing shifts in scale brought on by globalization and the era of the Anthropocene, including: the difficulties of defining the concept of scale; the challenges that shifts in scale pose to knowledge formation; the role of scale in mediating individual subjectivity and agency; the barriers to understanding objects existing in scalar realms different from our own; the role of scale in mediating the relationship between humans and the environment; and the nature of power, authority, and democracy at different social scales. 000827615 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000827615 650_0 $$aCriticism. 000827615 650_0 $$aGeocriticism. 000827615 650_0 $$aScaling (Social sciences) 000827615 7001_ $$aClarke, Michael Tavel,$$eeditor. 000827615 7001_ $$aWittenberg, David,$$eeditor. 000827615 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tScale in literature and culture.$$dCham : Palgrave Macmillan 2017$$z9783319642413$$w(OCoLC)1012574011 000827615 830_0 $$aGeocriticism and spatial literary studies. 000827615 852__ $$bebk 000827615 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-64242-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000827615 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:827615$$pGLOBAL_SET 000827615 980__ $$aEBOOK 000827615 980__ $$aBIB 000827615 982__ $$aEbook 000827615 983__ $$aOnline 000827615 994__ $$a92$$bISE
