From New Orleans to New York, from London to Paris to Venice, many
of the world's great cities were built on wetlands and swamps.
Cities and Wetlands is the first book to explore the literary and
cultural histories of these cities and their relationships to their
environments and buried histories. Developing a ground-breaking new
mode of psychoanalytic ecology and surveying a wide range of major
cities in North America and Europe, ecocritic and activist Rod
Giblett shows how the wetland origins of these cities haunt their
later literature and culture and might prompt us to reconsider the
relationship between human culture and the environment. Cities
covered include: Berlin, Boston, Chicago, Hamburg, London, New
Orleans, New York, Paris, St. Petersburg, Toronto, Venice and
Washington.
