In the last decade, one of the most transformative innovations in the humanities and social sciences has been the renewed interest in the role of emotions and affects in human and more-than-human lives.  

Although we work with different materials and within different theoretical frameworks, what we spend most of our days with is reading – archival sources, documents, field notes, texts in multiple genres and formats

For more than a decade, scholars across fields and disciplines have mobilized the concept of “the Anthropocene” as the framework for their studies, be it in history, culture studies, international relations, or environmental humanities. On the other hand, as of October 2020, neither the International Commission on Stratigraphy nor the International Union of Geological Sciences has officially approved the term as a recognised subdivision of geologic time.   

At this seminar, Rachel Douglas-Jones from the IT-University of Copenhagen will invite you to reflect on how the Covid-19 pandemic affects your dissertation work, whether you work ethnographically or textually. By means of exercises and discussions she will help you find your way through this unprecedented and unnerving situation.
