This volume focuses on the interface of the Anthropocene, sustainability, ecological aesthetics, multispecies relationality, and the environment as reflected in literature and culture. The work examines how writers have addressed ecological crises and environmental challenges that transcend national, cultural, political, social, and linguistic borders. The volume demonstrates how, as the environmental humanities developed and emerged as a critical discipline, it generated a diverse range of interdisciplinary fields of study, such as ecographics, ecodesign, ecocinema, ecotheology, ecofeminism, ethnobotany, ecolinguistics and bioregionalism, and formed valuable, interdisciplinary networks of critique and advocacyand its contemporary expansion is exceptionally salient to social, political, and public issues today.

Arvustused

Echoing Walt Whitman, I suggested many years ago that ecocriticism was large and it contain[ ed] multitudes. Well, the field continues to grow and now contains multitudes of ideas, texts, and vocabularies my colleagues and I never imagined when we worked to establish the field. Global Perspectives on Eco-Aesthetics and Eco-Ethics is diverse and rich in so many waysculturally, disciplinarily, and even in the varying degrees of aesthetic adventurousness and ethical urgency described by the contributors. This collection showcases the true vibrancy of contemporary work in the environmental humanities. -- Scott Slovic, University of Idaho, coeditor of The Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication Discourses on ecology and environmental humanities have helped us see beyond borders and frontiers and this book with its global perspectives and multicultural view-points is a welcome addition. The authors proffer a variant spectrum of academic studies on imagining nature and narrating ecology.  -- Murali Sivaramakrishnan, Pondicherry University
