Examines the representation of landscape in the poetry of John Burnside, Kathleen Jamie, Robin Robertson and Kenneth White

  • Provides an interdisciplinary approach to the representation of landscape in contemporary poetry
  • Opens up the dialogue between ecocriticism and phenomenology
  • Provides significant original discussion of major Scottish poets
  • Reassesses the work and place of Kenneth White's poetry and thought

With an exciting and provocative approach to the reading of landscape and the non-human world in the work of four major Scottish poets, this groundbreaking book merges phenomenology and ecocritical literary criticism. It explores these poets' organic, intimate interrelation between the self and the world, their relationship to the landscape and connection with nature.
