Combining affect studies and environmental humanities, this volume analyzes societies' devotion to extraction and fossil resources. This devotion is shaped by a nostalgic view on settler colonialism as well as by contemporary  affective economies  (Sara Ahmed). The contributors examine the links between forms of extractivism and gendered discourses of sentimentality and the ways in which cultural narratives and practices deploy the sentimental mode (in plots of attachment, sacrifice, and suffering) to promote or challenge extractivism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAxelle Germanaz is a doctoral researcher in American Studies at Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.\u003cbr\u003eDaniela Gutiérrez Fuentes is a doctoral researcher in American Studies at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany.\u003cbr\u003eSarah Marak is a doctoral research in American studies at Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.\u003cbr\u003eHeike Paul is chair of American studies and speaker of the DFG Research Training Group 2726 »The Sentimental in Literature, Culture and Politics« at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51855149924640,"sku":"9783837664102","price":81.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/LFj5BAFhg19783837664102.webp?v=1781535545","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/to-the-last-drop-affective-economies-of-extraction-and-sentimentality-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
