What forms, then, afford us the most possibility when it comes to thinking about our ecological moment? What forms might help us think, if not ecological totality, then interconnectedness and its limitations? These seem to be some of the most important questions we can ask as scholars working in science, literature, and the arts, particularly when our work overlaps with, or is consciously rooted in, the environmental humanities. In my own teaching and research, I am interested in the smallest scales of connection—the forms of relation that help us imagine not the planet as a whole, but the intimate ecologies (as I term them) that comprise and structure it. My understanding is that parasitisms and mutualisms above all have played an outsized role in our understandings of relationality among all organisms since the nineteenth century. But it is clear to me that we need studies of all sorts of forms—forms for imagining proximity as well as distance, for negotiating interdependence as well as its limitations. By proliferating the forms at our disposal, we provide ourselves with new tools for working our way out of the current ecological moment.
