While it was useful for the explanation of certain terms -- "Wilderness" "Place" and "Dwelling" in particular -- the students generally felt that too much time was spent on case studies that were wandering, verbose, and tangential. They would have preferred a text that dealt more with the vocabulary of ecocriticism rather than its practice. I would not choose to use this text again in a class I teach; I would consider drawing on it for a reader, but I would not require students to purchase it.

Vuonna 2004 julkaistu Greg Garrardin ekokritiikkia käsittelevä kirja on tiukka tietopaketti ja laajasti käytetty lähdeteos myös viimeaikaisissa ekokriittisissa teoksissa (katso esim. Toni Lahtisen ja Markku Lehtimäen toimittama "Äänekäs kevät", 2008). Teos sisältää kattavan kuvauksen ekokritiikistä, sen syntymisestä, olemuksesta, tarkoituksesta,ja suuntauksen sisällä vaikuttavista, haarautuvista ekokriittisistä tutkimussuuntauksista (kuten esim. ekofeminismi). Koska teos on englannin kielinen ja lisäksi tietokirja, ainakin minun oli vaikeaa lukea sitä. Suosittelen kuitenkin kirjaa jokaiselle, joka haluaa jotain ekokritiikistä tietää. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Ecocriticism explores the ways in which we imagine and portray the relationship between humans and the environment in all areas of cultural production, from Wordsworth and Thoreau through to Google Earth, J.M. Coetzee and Werner Herzog's Grizzly Man. Greg Garrard's animated and accessible volume traces the development of the movement and explores its key concepts, including: pollution wilderness apocalypse dwelling animals earth. Featuring a newly rewritten chapter on animal studies, and considering queer and postcolonial ecocriticism and the impact of globalisation, this fully updated second edition also presents a glossary of terms and suggestions for further reading in print and online. Concise, clear, and authoritative, Ecocriticism offers the ideal introduction to this crucial subject for students of literary and cultural studies. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
