Häftad, Engelska, 2019

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Despite the fame Ted Hughes’s poetry has achieved, there has been surprisingly little critical writing on his children’s literature.This book identifies the importance of Hughes’s children’s writing from an ecocritical perspective and argues that the healing function that Hughes ascribes to nature in his children’s literature is closely linked to the development of his own sense of environmental responsibility. This book will be the first sustained examination of Hughes’s greening in relation to his writing for children, providing a detailed reading of Hughes’s children’s literature through his poetry, prose and drama as well as his critical essays and letters. In addition, it also explores how Hughes’s children’s writing is a window to the poet’s own emotional struggles, as well as his environmental consciousness and concern to reconnect a society that has become alienated from nature.This book will be of great interest to not only those studying Ted Hughes, but also students and scholars of environment and literature, ecocriticism, children’s literature and twentieth-century literature.

Women Who Write Animals
Female Literary Representations of the More-Than-Human World

Why have so many women turned to animals in their writing—and what does that reveal about our shared world? Women Who Write Animals: Female Literary Representations of the More-Than-Human World brings to light the rich and often overlooked legacy of Anglophone women writers who, from the late eighteenth century to the present, have engaged powerfully and provocatively with animal life. From activists and scientists to poets and novelists, these authors have reshaped how we imagine animals—and, in turn, ourselves.Drawing on ecofeminism, animal studies, and posthumanist thought, the essays gathered here explore intimate interspecies bonds, political resistance, ethical entanglements, and alternative ways of knowing and inhabiting the world. Combining original archival research with innovative critical approaches, this collection reclaims women’s central role in rethinking nature and challenges readers to envision a more compassionate, relational, and interconnected planet.
