520 _a"Marine species are central to the study of extinction, yet-with some notable exceptions-their disappearances have often tended to go unnoticed. This timely and wide-ranging volume should help ensure that extinction in all its forms is seared into the public consciousness; and that it becomes possible to imagine a world in which endangered marine species don't go the same way as their extinct counterparts, sinking before they can be properly accounted for into uncharted ocean depths". Graham Huggan, University of Leeds of UK Blue Extinction in Literature, Culture, and Art examines literary and cultural representations of aquatic biodiversity loss, bringing together critical perspectives from the blue humanities and extinction studies. It demonstrates the affordances, as well as the limitations, of literary and artistic forms in exposing the plight of aquatic organisms, drawing attention to the social, political, and economic structures that are contributing to their destruction. Together, the essays in this collection demonstrate how literature and art can challenge dominant cultural conceptions and lingering misconceptions surrounding aquatic biodiversity loss, offering new ways of relating to species ranging from whales to oysters.
