■ プロフィール
Claire Ravenscroft is Assistant Professor of American Literature and American Studies at International Christian University in Tokyo, Japan. She teaches in the university’s undergraduate majors in Literature and American Studies, the General Education curriculum, as well as the graduate program in Comparative Culture. Her research specializations include the Energy Humanities, Environmental Humanities, and 20th and 21st Century Literature.

Her book project, Fossil Capitalist Realism: Contemporary Fiction and Climate Inaction, examines the body of contemporary literature called “climate fiction” to understand the socio-cultural and political-economic dimensions of climate inaction amid widespread acceptance of global warming. Based on an analysis of twenty-first century literature, with a focus on novels from the carbon-intensive Global North and the genres of realism and science fiction, this research analyzes formal developments in the stories we tell about global warming in order to understand how fossil capitalist hegemony persists amid a loss of ideological coherence.

She earned her Ph.D. from Duke University in 2020.
