The Environmental Imagination: Thoreau, Nature Writing, and the Formation of American Culture
ISBN: 9780674258624 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. With the environmental crisis comes a crisis of the imagination, a need to find new ways to understand nature and humanity's relation to it.

With Thoreau's Walden as a touchstone, Buell gives us a far-reaching account of environmental perception, the place of nature in the history of western thought, and the consequences for literary scholarship of attempting to imagine a more "ecocentric" way of being. In doing so, he provides...
