Produktbeschreibung
Whether it is the ocean, the ground or soil, a metaphorical or symbolic underworld or a political figure of thought, the subsurface intervenes in recent debates about ecological, social and postcolonial conflicts and power inequalities in the humanities and beyond. However, turning to the unstable grounds of the subterranean always involves a conceptual or methodological movement and a practice of submersion, and thus a critical reflection on the conditions, technologies, aesthetics and politics of knowledge production. It is precisely at this point that the volume picks up with approaches from the fields of artistic practice as well as media studies, art history, queer theory, and decolonial studies. From this transdisciplinary perspective, the anthology explores the medial, aesthetic, and material aspects of sub(e)merging as well as its potential as a resistant practice and figure of thought: from submerging as emerging.

With contributions by Pinar Asan, Özge Çelikaslan, Marie Sophie Beckmann, Liliana Gómez, Suza Husse, Johanna Laub, Petra Löffler, Friederike Nastold, Maryse Ouellet, Julia Schade, Hannah Schmedes, Martin Siegler, Amelie Wedel, and Verena Melgarejo Weinandt.
