SUMMARY:“Post-Soviet Ecopoetics” and “Retroactive Anticolonialism”:
  Theorising Central Asia’s Decolonial Aesthetics
DESCRIPTION:In her talk\, Dr. Tamar Koplatadze introduces decolonial cultur
 al movements in Central Asia and discusses\\r\\ntheir implications for ant
 icolonial movements beyond the region. Her analysis will focus on the ecop
 oetics of\\r\\nHamid Ismailov’s novella „The Dead Lake“ (2015)\, sho
 wing how inextricably it intertwines questions of\\r\\nidentity\, nature a
 nd music. While uniquely shaped by Kazakh flora and fauna\, as well as the
  local traditions of\\r\\nakyr zaman\, zar zaman and aitys\, Ismailov’s 
 ecomusical language transcends the boundaries of nationality and\\r\\nciti
 zenships. In doing so\, it evokes solidarity with the various human and no
 n-human beings and landscapes\\r\\nof Central Asia.\\r\\nThe talk further 
 proposes two intertwined concepts for the analysis of decolonial movements
  in Central Asia\\r\\nand potentially beyond: „retroactive colonialism
 ” and „post-Soviet ecopoetics”. Highlighting Cenrtal Asian\\r\\ncult
 ures’ turn towards postcolonial revisionism and activism in its ecologic
 al and supraethnic dimensions\,\\r\\nTamar Koplatadze proposes a truly inc
 lusive\, locally developed decolonial vision in the post-Soviet space.\\r\
 \nDuring the talk\, a sandwich lunch and coffee will be served.
