Specificatii
No writer has better understood the mix of fear and possibility,
peril and exuberance that's marked this new millennium.--Bill
McKibben An elegant reminder that activist victories are easily
forgotten, and that they often come in extremely unexpected,
roundabout ways.--The New YorkerA book as powerful and influential
as Rebecca Solnit's Men Explain Things to Me, her Hope in the Dark
was written to counter the despair of radicals at a moment when
they were focused on their losses and had turned their back to the
victories behind them--and the unimaginable changes soon to come.
In it, she makes a radical case for hope as a commitment to act in
a world whose future remains uncertain and unknowable. Drawing on
her decades of activism and a wide reading of environmental,
cultural, and political history, Solnit argued that radicals have a
long, neglected history of transformative victories, that the
positive consequences of our acts are not always immediately seen,
directly knowable, or even measurable, and that pessimism and
despair rest on an unwarranted confidence about what is going to
happen next. Now, with a moving new introduction explaining how the
book came about and a new afterword that helps teach us how to hope
and act in our unnerving world, she brings a new illumination to
the darkness of 2016 in an unforgettable new edition of this
classic book.Writer, historian, and activist Rebecca Solnit is the
author of eighteen or so books on feminism, western and indigenous
history, popular power, social change and insurrection, wandering
and walking, hope and disaster, including the books Men Explain
Things to Me and Hope in the Dark, both also with Haymarket; a
trilogy of atlases of American cities; The Faraway Nearby; A
Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in
Disaster; A Field Guide to Getting Lost; Wanderlust: A History of
Walking; and River of Shadows, Eadweard Muybridge and the
Technological Wild West (for which she received a Guggenheim, the
National Book Critics Circle Award in criticism, and the Lannan
Literary Award). A product of the California public education
system from kindergarten to graduate school, she is a columnist at
Harper's and a regular contributor to the Guardian.
