Four-Decade Studies of Ecocriticism and Beyond—Retrospect and Prospect
Scott Slovic, University Distinguished Professor of Environmental Humanities at the University of Idaho in the United States, was the founding president of the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (ASLE) from 1992 to 1995, and he edited ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment, the major journal in the field of ecocriticism from 1995 to 2020. After nearly forty years of studying ecocriticism, he retired fro…
Nature and Literary Studies
Nature and Literary Studies supplies a broad and accessible overview of one of the most important and contested keywords in modern literary studies. Drawing together the work of leading scholars of a variety of critical approaches, historical periods, and cultural traditions, the book examines nature's philosophical, theological, and scientific origins in literature, as well as how literary representations of this concept evolved in response to c…

"Cultivating an Ability to Imagine"
For nearly two decades since Lawrence Buell defined and anatomized “toxic discourse” in Writing for an Endangered World: Literature, Culture, and Environment in the U.S. and Beyond (2001), the storying of toxic experience has received fruitful theoretical and literary attention. Throughout the world, citizens have come to terms with the reality that we live on a poisoned planet and the poisons in our environment are also in ourselves—the poisons …
Savouring What Remains of the World’s Wildness
Those who love the natural world have plenty to despair about in today’s world, as wildlands are carved into housing tracts and plumbed for oil and species after species are driven to extinction – a world in which we may well be warming ourselves to extinction. In the face of this daunting reality, I often find myself, as a teacher and scholar of environmental literature, turning to American author John Muir (1838-1914) for solace and inspiration…
Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication
Unnatural Ecopoetics
What constitutes an environment in American literature is an issue that has undergone much debate across environmental humanities in the last decade. In the field, some have argued that environments are markedly natural or wild sites while others contend literary spaces can be both wild and urban, or even cultural. Yet, few of the works produced to date have addressed the pronounced influence the author of a text has on a literary environment. De…
Narrative Scholarship as an American Contribution to Global Ecocriticism
An Abiding Sense of Relationship
What is called subjectivity is really just a small region of a much larger space of interactions between beings: coffee cups, sea foam, flakes of obsidian, and nebulae. To realize this is to enter into a larger world in which humans coexist with a plenitude of uncanny entities that for shorthand's sake Timothy Morton's essay calls objects. Ecological awareness just is the human attunement to this coexistence. Many of these objects are large enoug…

Guest Editors' Introduction
A Booklist of International Environmental Literature
Ihave given the compilers of the following lists an almost impossible task: to select no more than five important works of “environmental literature” from their home countries (or regions) around the world or from literary traditions in which they have particular expertise. The point here is not to produce exhaustive or definitive lists of “the best” works, but rather to give experts a chance to present some of their own favorites in the hope of …
