Chinese Environmental Humanities showcases contemporary ecocritical
approaches to Chinese culture and aesthetic production as practiced
in China itself and beyond. As the first collaborative
environmental humanities project of this kind, this book brings
together sixteen scholars from a diverse range of disciplines,
including literary and cultural studies, philosophy, ecocinema and
ecomedia studies, religious studies, minority studies, and animal
or multispecies studies. The fourteen chapters are conceptually
framed through the lens of the Chinese term huanjing (environment
or "encircling the surroundings"), a critical device for imagining
the aesthetics and politics of place-making, or "the practice of
environing at the margin." The discourse of environing at the
margins facilitates consideration of the modes, aesthetics, ethics,
and politics of environmental inclusion and exclusion, providing a
lens into the environmental thinking and practices of the world's
most populous society.
