Judith Rauscher

Ecopoetic Place-Making

Nature and Mobility in Contemporary American Poetry

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

American ecopoetries of migration explore the conflicted relationships of mobile subjects to the nonhuman world and thus offer valuable environmental insight for our current age of mass mobility and global ecological crisis. In Ecopoetic Place-Making, Judith Rauscher analyzes the works of five contemporary American poets of migration, drawing from ecocriticism and mobility studies. The poets discussed in her study challenge exclusionary notions of place-attachment and engage in ecopoetic place-making from different perspectives of mobility, testifying to the potential of poetry as a means of conceptualizing alternative environmental imaginaries for our contemporary world on the move.

Rezensionen

»On the whole, the book offers both students and scholars a meticulous and excellent approach to the concepts and debates within environmental literature and ecocriticism. Moreover, »Ecopoetics and Place-Making« is an auspicious inauguration for the series, and it is more than fair to look forward to reading the books that will follow.«
