RT Article T1 Letting the Dark have its Day: Jacob Böhme’s Ecological Esotericism & the New Speculative Realism JF Correspondences VO 12 IS 1 SP 69 OP 105 A1 Gentzke, Joshua Levi Ian LA English YR 2024 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1930472331 AB The COVID-19 pandemic has illuminated interconnected ecological and existential crises, revealing a broader crisis of relationality that interconnects environmental, economic, and social spheres. These "dark times" confront us with challenges so vast they defy conceptualization. While the fallout from the pandemic has necessitated the development of novel forms of technocratic control, it has also exposed deep injustices embedded in the ways we have structured and imagined our hyper-networked world. In this context, the task of exploring alternate ways of mapping our relationship with the other-than-human world has taken on a new urgency.
