Practising Immanence: Living with Theory and Environmental Education
Autor David A. G. Clarkeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2023
Clarke’s energising and innovative approach offers a challenge to conventional research practices and shows ways in which inquiry can be done differently. Drawing on new materialisms, affect theory and the practical philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, the book details the PhD journey of the author, merging stories and theory (and stories of theory) in the production of eight ‘haecceities’ – a philosophical concept which prioritises the thisness of a thing or event. This move allows a novel methodological approach whereby the haecceities act as sites of variation on the events of the book: the self as unstable and posthuman; the environment as everything (immanent) rather than as an overly romantic or a green version of nature; and the tensions that these moves create for ethical orientations in education, inquiry and life in the Anthropocene.
Practising Immanence brings theory to life through a diffractively critical style and a unique approach to environmental pedagogic practice. This radical and vitalising book will be of interest to those inspired to explore environmental problems and inquiry with each other and to those drawn to creative-relational, narrative, embodied and post-qualitative approaches to research.

Recenzii
"Practising Immanence is smart, thorough, vulnerable, urgent, open, exploratory, authoritative. It is full of fresh insights and offers a valuable contribution both to environmental education and to the theoretical and (non-)methodological terrain it draws from so beautifully. It is a book that works confidently and effectively with the ‘fuzziness’ of post qualitative approaches, which is effective in conceptualising, taking up and articulating a post autoethnographic approach and which effectively engages with multiple, theoretically informed issues connected with the application of such an approach. The book is a timely and well-conceived piece of work that brings a Deleuzian approach to immanence and other related forms of concept making to the practice of outdoor academic practice and in the search for pedagogical approaches that might help to mitigate environmental degradation. In this, Clarke takes the reader through a complex, engaging, provocative reading experience. A delight from beginning to end." -- Dr Jonathan Wyatt, Professor of Qualitative Inquiry, University of Edinburgh, UK and Dr Ken Gale. Author of Writing and Immanence, University of Plymouth’, UK
"As career-long advocates for academically rigorous research in outdoor and environmental education done differently, we enthusiastically welcome David Clarke’s explorations in thinking with theory in these fields. Clarke convincingly demonstrates how the theoretical positions of philosophers such as Deleuze and Guattari and feminist new materialists, as well as object oriented ontology and material ecocriticism, can be generative for thinking differently with theory in outdoor environmental education settings. Narrated with wit and wisdom, this is essential reading for early career researchers and graduate students in outdoor environmental education, and seasoned researchers will also find much to enjoy and to challenge them to think with theory in their practices." -- Professor Emerita Annette Gough OAM, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia and Professor Emeritus Noel Gough, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia
"This book offers an enactment between-the-two of environmental education and qualitative inquiry. Beginning in the middle, Clarke offers stories of practice-theorising-inquiry at the limit of both environmental concerns, education, and inquiry in what he names "environing education." His doings are offered as provocations to that which is yet to come, but also immanent in environmental education research. In the here and now, Clarke’s book is a welcome addition to a growing body of philosophically informed inquiry that erodes received practices and that invite an ethics that is emergent, affectual, and material." -- Alecia Y. Jackson and Lisa A. Mazzei, authors of Thinking with Theory in Qualitative Research

Descriere
This book makes a philosophical contribution to theory and inquiry in environmental education by attempting a form of inquiry that at once troubles the idea of ‘nature’ and the human ‘self’.
