Melanie Arndt reflects on her experiences of growing up east of the Iron Curtain during the Cold War—specifically as a child in East Germany and later as a volunteer in Minsk, Belarus
Prepublished draft of a Emmanuelle Roth’s and Gregg Mitman’s article “Visual Tailings.”
First chapter of the virtual exhibition “Wetland Times,” “Imaginaries.”
Wetlands are ecologically dynamic and vulnerable landscapes where multiple temporalities, human and nonhuman, intersect and challenge one another. This virtual exhibition explores the dynamic temporalities of wetlands and their complex relationships—the temporal imaginaries, narratives, structures, flows, (a)synchronicities, and ruptures they contain—framed by a conceptual vocabulary that reveals the role of language in understanding wetland times and temporalities. Our examples draw on case studies from three wetlands: the Wadden Sea in Northern Europe; Morecambe Bay, in the northwest of the United Kingdom; and the Dja-et-Lobo region in southern Cameroon, focusing specifically on wetland areas near settlements of the Baka People.

About the Exhibition Full volume of Traces of the Animal Past: Methodological Challenges in Animal History edited by Jennifer Bonnel and Sean Kheraj.
This article explores the nature of remembering as a lake, with a lake, or through a lake; the differential relationships, knowledge, and perspectives contained within; and the potentially troubling implications found at the intersection of scientific and humanistic perspectives on lake being.
Combinando memoria, esperienza e ricerca d’archivio, questo volume esplora la connessione tra lo storytelling e la storia ambientale in Germania e in Italia.
