Literary Studies in the Era of the Environmental Crisis – Introduction

Abstract

The Environmental Criticism Reader is a first-of-its-kind compilation of great publications in the subject of environmental literary criticism, which has recently gained traction. The opening to the book is a fantastic article for any researcher who is sincerely interested in the most current topic; in this case, the global environmental disaster. It offers light on the discipline of environmental literary criticism, which peaked with the publication of a collection of writings on environmental concerns. The article defines ecocritical theory, which is focused on finding the link between literature and nature. It also recognizes the adoption of many publications as one of its implicit aims for thinking about man’s connection to nature. The Introduction serves as a cornerstone work for the study of our interactions with the natural world, with a focus on the physical link between literature and the environment. It briefly outlines environmental literary discourse and follows its evolution over the last quarter century, delving into the roots and trends and presenting clear examples of a range of environmental approaches to literature.
