Asbestos the Last Modernist Object
Few modern materials have been as central to histories of environmental toxicity, medical ignorance, and legal liability as asbestos.A naturally occurring mineral fibre once hailed for its ability to guard against fire, asbestos is now best known for the horrific illnesses it causes.This book offers a new take on the established history of asbestos from a literary critical perspective, showing how literature and film during and after modernism responded first to the material's proliferation through the built environment, and then to its catastrophic effects on human health.Starting from the surprising encounters writers have had with asbestos Franz Kafka's part ownership of an asbestos factory, Primo Levi's work in an asbestos mine, and James Kelman's early life as an asbestos factory worker the book looks to literature to rethink received truths in historical, legal and medical scholarship.In doing so, it models an interdisciplinary approach for tracking material intersections between modernism and the environmental and health humanities.Asbestos The Last Modernist Object offers readers a compelling new method for using cultural objects when thinking about how to live with the legacies of toxic materials.

'Asbestos or no asbestos?'
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in building materials for its fire-resistant properties. However, exposure to asbestos fibers can cause serious health issues, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. Due to these health risks, many countries have banned the use of asbestos in new construction projects. It is important to be aware of the presence of asbestos in older buildings and take precautions when renovating or demolishing them to prevent exposure to its harmful fibers.
-
Is asbestos asbestos paper?
No, asbestos paper is not the same as asbestos. Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in building materials for its heat resistance and durability. Asbestos paper, on the other hand, is a type of insulation material made from asbestos fibers mixed with other materials such as cement or paper. While both contain asbestos fibers, they are used in different applications and have different properties.

Asbestos or not asbestos: wooden floor?
If you suspect that your wooden floor may contain asbestos, it is important to have it tested by a professional.

If your wooden floor was installed before the 1980s, there is a possibility that it may contain asbestos. It is better to be safe and have it tested rather than risking exposure to this harmful substance.

It is important to handle and dispose of red asbestos cement sheets with caution to avoid exposure to asbestos fibers.
