Despite this, humanistic research has predominantly studied humans as land-based beings. Research concerned with climate change is often framed as \u201cgreen\u201d. Over the past two decades, the interdisciplinary field of blue humanities has developed partly in response to this \u2013 both to climate change in the Anthropocene, and to the humanities\u2019 blind spots concerning the fundamental importance of the sea and water to humanity, historically, in the present, and in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Blue humanities explore human relationships with the sea and water in different forms, and across different periods. Research in the field examines, among other things, how the sea and water have been understood and used at different times and in different places, how they are represented in art and literature, and how people live with the sea and water in their everyday lives. Posthumanist perspectives on human relationships with the more-than-human \u2013 with nature, places, animals, and plants \u2013 are common within the field, as are critical approaches to power, and postcolonial perspectives.<\/p>\n<p>The field partly overlaps with maritime ethnology, which has a long tradition of research on boat and archipelago life, coastal communities, and fishing, and which in recent decades has broadened to also encompass the significance of the sea for people, communities, and questions of cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>The meanings and significance of seas and waters for the world will continue to change as a result of climate change, making cultural understandings of human\/water relationships particularly important.<\/p>\n<p>The journal Kulturella Perspektiv is now inviting contributions on relationships between humans and water under the theme \u201cBlue Humanities\u201d. Contributions may address human relationships with seas and waterways, ice, steam, or freshwater, or with animals, plants, and other beings in maritime contexts, across different periods and contexts.<\/p>\n<p>Submit your abstract during autumn 2026, no later than 30 November.
