Examining the sugar, cacao, coal, and oil frontiers in Trinidad, Brazil, and Britain, \u003ci\u003eWorld Literature and Ecology\u003c\/i\u003e shows how literary texts have registered the relationship between the re-making of biophysical natures and struggles around class, race, and gender. It combines a materialist theory of world-literature with the insights of the world-ecology perspective to generate compelling new readings of writers such as Rhys Davies, Yseult Bridges, Lewis Jones, José Lins do Rego, Ellen Wilkinson, Jorge Amado, Gwyn Thomas, and Ralph de Boissière. The book represents a timely intervention into a series of field-defining debates around peripheral realisms and modernisms, ecocriticism, and the energy humanities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Niblett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030385809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030385804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.63d","brand":"Michael Niblett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44190867063039,"sku":"9783030385804","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_78ba5e72-8eb2-4d15-a2c1-688e6c562347.jpg?v=1690872801","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/world-literature-and-ecology-michael-niblett-9783030385804","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
