{"product_id":"perspectives-on-ecocriticism-ingemar-haag-9781527532007","title":"Perspectives on Ecocriticism: Local Beginnings, Global Echoes","description":"This volume gathers together papers presented at the conference â oeEcocriticism in the Nordic Countries; Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow⠝ held in Västerà s, Sweden, in 2017, organized by the research group Ecocritical Forum at Mälardalen University. The conference, which was an attempt to survey local ecocritical activities, transcended Nordic boundaries, engaging scholars from Europe and the United States. This expansion from the local to the global mirrors the subject of the conference: ecocriticism, a cross-disciplinary field of research in the intersection of environmental issues and cultural expressions. \u003cp\u003eThe chapters here engage with topical issues such as the Anthropocene, sustainability in education, and civilizational critique, as well as schools of thought such as materialism, dark ecology and animal studies. The contributions discuss several types of cultural expressions, including film and other visual media, university course design and Nordic, and English language novels and poetry. This volume will attract the interest of readers from a number of different backgrounds, both in the Nordic countries and internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ingemar Haag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1527532003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781527532007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge Scholars Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.70w x 0.80d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ingemar Haag","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48518810173695,"sku":"9781527532007","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e38e773-852e-416e-9b8a-296ade0692ef.jpg?v=1778735735","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/perspectives-on-ecocriticism-ingemar-haag-9781527532007","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
