Amitav Ghosh (2/2): Det er ikke kun mennesker, der kan kommunikere (PREMIUM)
Den store vildfarelse, kaldte han den. Den indiske stjerneforfatter Amitav Ghosh brød igennem til nye generationer, da han i fire banebrydende forelæsninger på University of Chicago hudflettede den politiske og kulturelle blindhed over for klimaforandringerne. I dette afsnit af Den levende, det andet af to afsnit med Amitav Ghosh, fortæller han, hvordan vi retter op på fejlen. Vi har nemlig glemt, at det langt fra kun mennesker, der former verden og kommunikerer, siger Ghosh. Og hvis vi begynder at få øje for de ikke-menneskelige kræfter, der påvirker både vores og planetens liv, kan v...

Bloom
The Stories of Our Climate – Andri Snær Magnason, Amitav Ghosh & Lotte Folke
To af klimalitteraturens mest markante forfattere mødtes på Bloom 2025 : Andri Snær Magnason, der i maj udgav fortællingen ’Jötunstein’, og den indiske romanforfatter og essayist Amitav Ghosh, der er aktuel på dansk med ’Den store vildfarelse’. Ghosh er berømt og berygtet for sin kritik af den moderne roman, som er tynget under et psykologisk verdensbillede, hvor det er mennesket, der handler, og naturen blot er en passiv omverden. Derfor har romankunsten ifølge Ghosh aldrig fået greb om klimakrisen, og der er brug for nye, vilde fortællinger, der tillader naturkræfterne at træde i forgrunden i egen...

Amitav Ghosh er blandt de største af nutidens intellektuelle, der beskæftiger sig med den planetære krise, og i to nye afsnit besøger han Den levende for at fortælle om to af sine mest dagsordensættende ideer. Efter årtiers karriere som skønlitterær stjerne har Ghosh nemlig fået et helt nyt publikum, der i år strømmede til Bloo...

Are We Doomed? Amitav Ghosh’s Chilling Warnings on Climate Change, Migration, and the Monsters We Created!
What if the "monsters" of climate change aren’t just environmental disasters but political beasts born from global inequality? In this spine-chilling episode, Amitav Ghosh unravels the terrifying connections between extreme weather, migration, and the imperial violence shaping our world. From the deadly brown cloud over South Asia to the frozen bodies of migrants at the US-Canada border, are we witnessing the collapse of humanity itself? Why are vigilantes hunting migrants while economies depend on their labor? How do cell phones and colonial networks fuel this global crisis? And can local resilience in Africa save us from th...

Beings Seen and Unseen – A Conversation with Amitav Ghosh
In his book The Nutmeg’s Curse, scholar Amitav Ghosh writes, “the planet will never come alive for you unless your songs and stories give life to all the beings seen and unseen that inhabit a living Earth,”—seeding a shift in consciousness begins with the stories we tell. In this wide-ranging interview from our archives, Amitav explores the themes of his recent work, including the insidious philosophy that the Earth is inert and how this belief paved the way for the implementation of violent projects around the globe, such as the genocide of Indigenous people and the monolith of capit...

Amitav Ghosh : Smoke and Ashes
For nearly twenty years Amitav Ghosh has been writing about opium and the opium trade, first in his fictional Ibis trilogy, and now in nonfiction with Smoke & Ashes. This is a story that brings together many of the preoccupying themes from Ghosh’s career: the legacies of colonialism and extractive colonial economies, the intelligence of plants and the ways plants are actors and agents within history, and the strategies that can be gleaned from the story of opium in today’s battle to address climate change. But given that he has now engaged with the opium trade in both nonf...

Juan-José Martín-González draws upon the intersections between maritime criticism and postcolonial thought to provide, via an analysis of the Ibis trilogy, alternative insights into nationalism(s), cosmopolitanism and globalization. He shows that the Victorian age in its transoceanic dimension can be read as an era of proto-globalization that facilitates a materialist critique of the inequities of contemporary global neo-liberalism.

Trying to decrease your carbon footprint can be complicated. You use metal straws, recycle your paper, and bring your own grocery bags to the store, but everything you buy is part of a supply chain that's simply way out of your control.

In today's interview, Ghosh tells NPR's Ari Shapiro that writing his 2019 novel Gun Island based on old legends allowed for a full response to the scope of...
