Produktbeschreibung

Digital Environments signifies a shift in how we think about interactions with places and spaces, both "real" and simulated. This collection considers the possibilities of bringing ecocritical approaches into conversation with digital environments. The intent is to initiate a dialogue between two areas of research often understood as disparate. This book was originally published as a special issue of Green Letters: Studies in Ecocriticism.
