Ecocriticism and environmental communication studies have for many years co-existed as parallel disciplines, occasionally crossing paths but typically operating in separate academic spheres. These fields are now rapidly converging, and this handbook aims to reinforce the common concerns and methodologies of the sibling disciplines.

The Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication charts the history of the relationship between ecocriticism and environmental communication studies, while also highlighting key new paradigms in information studies, diverse examples of practical applications of environmental communication and textual analysis, and the patterns and challenges of environmental communication in non-Western societies. Contributors to this book include literary, film and religious studies scholars, communication studies specialists, environmental historians, practicing journalists, art critics, linguists, ethnographers, sociologists, literary theorists, and others, but all focus their discussions on key issues in textual representations of human-nature relationships and on the challenges and possibilities of environmental communication. The handbook is designed to map existing trends in both ecocriticism and environmental communication and to predict future directions.

This handbook will be an essential reference for teachers, students, and practitioners of environmental literature, film, journalism, communication, and rhetoric and well as the broader meta-discipline of environmental humanities.

Recenzijas

"The Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication is a surprising, insightful, and gratifying collection of essays stemming from multiple disciplines and cultures, yet all converging on the rhetoric used in conveying environmental issues through a diverse array of communication strategies and media. The editors conscious effort to decentralize European and Anglophone perspectives to include other voices is both refreshing and necessary." Carmen Flys Junquera, Universidad de Alcalį, Spain, editor of Ecozon@: European Journal of Literature, Culture and Environment

"This collection of essays gathers from the fields of ecocriticism and environmental communication to promote paths of understanding that help us mend the broken ways of our interconnectedness. A hearty salute to the editors for bringing together these critiques and hopes for a renewed life on our Earth." Juan Carlos Galeano, Florida State University, USA, poet, environmentalist, and author of Folktales of the Amazon

"This wonderful collection testifies to the ever-expanding transnational reach of environmental literature and other arts. The editors have compiled a vital volume of ecocritical thought, as their book brings into conversation an exciting array of new texts and new conceptual approaches." Rob Nixon, Princeton University, author of Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor

"This new anthology offers a brilliantly varied and international spectrum of perspectives on the overlapping concerns of ecocriticism and environmental communication, two areas of study that should have long been connected, but have rarely been considered together. A must-read for anyone interested in environmental storytelling and image-making, from news coverage to nonfiction, fiction, and film, and a gateway to exciting new paths of research in environmental expression and communication." Ursula K. Heise, UCLA, USA author of Imagining Extinction: The Cultural Meanings of Endangered Species
