Описание:
In both metaphorical and brutely chemical senses, the atmosphere we breathe today is the atmosphere of the British Empire. Fired by coal and bent on remaking the world in its own image, Victorian England was history's first industrial society and its most powerful global empire. Ecological Form coordinates those facts to show how one version of the Anthropocene first emerged into visibility in the nineteenth century.
These eleven new essays by leading voices in nineteenth century ecocriticism suture the lingering divide between postcolonial and ecocritical approaches to show how Victorian thinkers used aesthetic form to engage problems of system, interconnection, and dispossession that remain our own. Using what the editors describe as "ecological formalism," these sharply-written interventions open new dimensions to our understanding of the Age of Coal. They reconsider Victorian literary structures in light of environmental catastrophe; coordinate "natural" questions with sociopolitical ones; and underscore the category of form--as built structure, internal organizing logic, and generic code--as a means for generating environmental and therefore political knowledge.
Moving from the elegy and the industrial novel to the utopian romance, the scientific treatise, and beyond, the contributors renovate our understanding of the era's major forms and key writers, including Thomas Hardy, George Eliot, John Ruskin, and Joseph Conrad. But they also show how less celebrated figures such as Dinabandhu Mitra, Samuel Butler, and Joseph Dalton Hooker speak to the never more pressing question of how to imagine interconnection at world scale. Ecological Form shows how nineteenth century thinkers conceived of the circuits of extraction and violence linking Britain to its global network. But its most pressing argument is that this past thought can be a resource for reimagining the present.

Описание: Christina Rossetti`s Environmental Consciousness provides a unique understanding of Rossetti`s identity as an artist through a cognitive model while also engaging significantly with her spiritual relationship to the nonhuman world.
Описание: First published in 1991, Romantic Ecology reassesses the poetry of William Wordsworth in the context of the abiding pastoral tradition in English Literature. Jonathan Bate explores the politics of poetry and argues that contrary to critics who suggest that the Wordsworth was a reactionary who failed to represent the harsh economic reality of his native Lake District, the poet’s politics were fundamentally ‘green’. As our first truly ecological poet, Wordsworth articulated a powerful and enduring vision of human integration with nature which exercised a formative influence on later conservation movements and is of immediate relevance to great environmental issues today. Challenging the orthodoxies of new historicist criticism, Jonathan Bate sets a new agenda for the study of Romanticism in the 1990s.

Описание:
Environmental Justice in Contemporary US Narratives examines post-1929 US artistic interrogations of environmental disruption. Tracing themes of pollution, marine life, and agricultural production in the work of a number of historically significant writers including John Steinbeck, Ruth Ozeki, and Cherr e Moraga, this book outlines a series of incisive dialogues on transnational flows of capital and environmental justice. Texts ranging from The Grapes of Wrath (1939) to Body Toxic (2001) represent the body as vulnerable to a host of environmental risks. They identify "natural disasters" not just as environmental hazards and catastrophes, but also as events intertwined with socioeconomic issues.
With careful textual analysis, Athanassakis shows how twentieth- and twenty-first-century US writers have sought to rethink traditional understandings of how the human being relates to ecological phenomena. Their work, and this study, offer new modes of creative engagement with environmental degradation - engagement that is proactive, ambivalent, and even playful.
This book contributes to vital discussions about the importance of literature for social justice movements, food studies, ecocriticism, and the environmental humanities. The core argument of the book is that artistically imaginative narratives of environmental disturbance can help humans contend with ostensibly uncontrollable, drastic planetary changes.
