The Routledge Companion to Ecopoetics offers comprehensive coverage of the vital and growing movement of ecopoetics. This volume begins with a general introduction to the field, followed by six sections:
Perspectives: broad overviews engaging fields such as biosemiosis, kinship praxis, and philosophical approaches Experiments: formal innovations developed by poets in response to planetary crises Earth and Water: explorations of poetic entanglement with planetary chemical and biological systems Waste/Toxicity/Precarity: poetics addressing the effects of pollution and climate change Environmental Justice and Activism: examinations of poetry as an engine of political and cultural change Region and Place: an international array of traditional and contemporary geographically focused responses to ecosystems and environmental conditions; and Subjectivities/Affects/Sexualities: investigations of gender, ethnicity, and race as they intersect with ecological concernsEach section includes an overview and summary addressing the specific essays in the section. These previously unpublished essays represent a wide variety of nationalities, backgrounds, perspectives, and critical approaches exploring the interdisciplinary field of ecopoetics. Contributions from leading scholars working across the globe make The Routledge Companion to Ecopoetics a landmark textbook and reference for a variety of researchers and students.
