NOTES

1. See Freud 1987.

2. The term “geopsychoanalysis” might be apt to describe Stapledon’s approach. The notion of a geopsychoanalysis was briefly suggested by Jacques Derrida but ultimately left underdeveloped in his work. Derrida’s essay on geopsychoanalysis states at the outset, “I’m sure it will come as no surprise to you that my speaking of ‘geopsychoanalysis’—just as one speaks of geography or geopolitics—does not mean that I am going to propose a psychoanalysis of the earth of the sort that was put forward a few decades ago, when Bachelard evoked ‘The Earth and the Reveries of Rest’ and ‘The Earth and the Reveries of the Will.’ But as inclined as I may be today to distance myself from such a psychoanalysis of the earth… it is nevertheless upon the earth that I wish to advance—upon what the psychoanalysis of today considers to be the earth” (Derrida 1998, 66).

3. Stefan Helmreich makes a brief comparison with the treatment of the ocean on Solaris and the oceans on Earth. Helmreich remarks that both oceans are seen as alien yet also as “a realm that scientists, managers, and policy makers seek to domesticate, to tame” (Helmreich 2009, 276).
