Hubert Zapf considers the ways in which literature operates as a form of cultural ecology, using language, imagination, and critique to challenge and transform cultural narratives of humanity's relationsip to nature. In this way, the book demonstrates the important role that literature plays in creating a more sustainable way of life."-- Cultural ecology and literary studies -- Ecocriticism and cultural ecology -- Literature as cultural ecology -- Transdisciplinary contexts of a cultural ecology of literature

    This book traces the aesthetic of wonder from the romantic period through contemporary philosophy and literature, arguing for its relevance to ecological consciousness. Most ecocritical scholarship tends to overshadow discussions of wonder with the sublime, failing to treat these two aesthetic categories as distinct. As a result, contemporary scholarship has conflated wonder and the sublime and ultimately lost the nuances that these two concepts conjure for readers and thinkers. Economides illuminates important differences between these aesthetics, particularly their negotiation of issues relevant to gender-based and environmental politics. In turn, readers can utilize the concept of wonder as an open-ended, non-violent framework in contrast to the ethos of domination that often surrounds the sublime Introduction: Wonder, Nature and Romanticism’s Forgotten Way -- Chapter 1: Wonder and Romantic Ecology -- Chapter 2: Romanticism, Scientific Wonders, and the Technological Sublime -- Chapter 3: The Environmental Sublime and Ecological Melancholy -- Chapter 4: Wonder and Technē in an Age of Ecological Risk

    ""Nightwalking is, in both the physical and the moral meanings of the term, deviant. At night, in other words, the idea of wandering cannot be dissociated from the idea of erring - wanderring. This elision or semantic slurring is present in the final lines of John Milton's Paradise Lost (1667), where the poet offers a glimpse, for perpetuity, of Adam and Eve, after their expulsion from Paradise, entering the post-lapsarian world on foot: 'They, hand in hand, with wandering steps and slow, / Through Eden took their solitary way.' Wandering steps. In a double sense, Adam and Eve are errant: at once itinerant and aberrant. They are condemned to a life of ceaseless, restless sinfulness. ""--

    Includes bibliographical references (pages 315-335) "If people are geographical beings, what can fiction tell us about this truth? This book explores how literature can help us understand the nature of the relations between people and place, how humans create connections between their identities and their geographies, and how these can be threatened and lost. Literature is an important, if unusual, way to explore these relations. At once centred in imagination and ideas, fiction is also indelibly connected to, as well as influenced by, the geographies in which it is set. As this book argues, the relationship between fiction and location is so important that it is often difficult to know which is imagined and which is real. Exploring the relations between people and place through fiction writing set in Wales, Page and Place garners poetic insight into how places are written into our stories, and how these stories take and make the places around us. The book introduces the notion of "plot" to describe the complex entanglement between fiction and geography, and to help understand the role that places play in defining human identity"--Cover page 4
