Aging Studies and Ecocriticism: Interdisciplinary Encounters argues
that both aging studies and ecocriticism address the complex
dynamics of individual and collective agency, oppression and
dependency, care and conviviality, vulnerability and resistance as
well as intergenerationality and responsibility. Yet, even though
both fields employ overlapping methodologies and theoretical
frameworks and scrutinize “boundary texts” in different
literary genres, which have been analyzed from ecocritical
perspectives as well as from the vantage point of critical aging
studies, there has been little scholarly interaction between
ecocritical literary studies and aging studies to date. The
contributors in this volume demonstrate the potential of specific
genres to narrate relationality and age, and the aesthetic and
ethical challenges of imagining changes, endings, and survival in
the Anthropocene. As the first step towards putting both fields in
conversation, this collection offers new pathways into
understanding human and nonhuman ecological relations.
