This collection of essays on ecocriticism can be used in classes in ecocriticism, introduction to graduate studies courses, and introduction to theory and criticism courses. Essays are organized in sections on reevaluating the roots of Western attitudes toward nature, ecocritical perspectives on 19th- and 20th-century authors, and expanding ecocriticism across genres and disciplines. According to the editors, essays have been selected "because of their appeal and accessibility to literary and cultural scholars who have an interest in ecocriticism but are looking for examples of how this approach might intersect with their primary fields of study." Material is also of interest to general readers. Armbruster teaches English at Webster University. Wallace is an independent scholar and writer currently working with the Ohio League of Conservation Voters. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)Book Details
