Produktbeschreibung
Decentring the growing field of ecolinguistics from its historically Western orientation, this open access book offers a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between language and the environment in the Global South. It brings forward new perspectives and voices to broaden our understanding of the role of language in addressing ecological challenges. Through a series of thought-provoking chapters, the book navigates through various dimensions of ecolinguistics, shedding light on critical issues and innovative approaches across diverse contexts. Case studies include the representation of ecotourism in Morocco, the implementation of ecological ideology in Oman, colonial legacies in Argentina's food production discourse, ecological identity in Kenya, the role of civets in Indonesian coffee production and life stories about Senegalese ecologies. Through a blend of theoretical insights and practical applications, the book advocates for a holistic understanding of ecolinguistics that transcends geographical boundaries and cultural nuances. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.
