The Routledge Companion to Ecopoetics offers a comprehensive
coverage of the vital and growing movement of ecopoetics, charting
the historical influences informing ecopoetics, delineating its
various subdivisions, and presenting a global range of established
figures and emerging scholarly debates. This volume begins with a
general introduction to the field, followed by three major
sections: Historical Contexts and Influences; Scalar Levels of
Poetic Engagement, ranging from global through regional,
terrain-oriented, local, and microscopic; and Intersections,
examining poetic encounters with science, critical animal studies,
philosophy, ethnobotany, environmental justice, visual and
performing arts, disability studies, spirituality and ritual, and
translation. The innovative second section will facilitate a
comprehensive and systems-based sequencing, including ecopoetic
engagements with topics including climate change, deforestation,
extinction, pollution, toxicity, and disasters; fieldwork and close
observation, and chemistry as it relates to environments including
the human body. Each section will feature a broad overview and
detailed consideration of poiesis, with reference to specific
texts. The brand new essays in this book represent a wide variety
of backgrounds, perspectives, and critical approaches exploring the
interdisciplinary field of ecopoetics. Glossaries and
cross-references will facilitate the volume’s usefulness
alongside its global, interdisciplinary breadth to establish The
Routledge Companion to Ecopoetics as a landmark textbook and
reference for a variety of researchers and students.
