French Ecocritique is the first book-length study of the culturally
specific ways in which contemporary French literature and theory
raise questions about nature and environment. Stephanie Posthumus's
ground-breaking work brings together thinkers such as Guattari,
Latour, and Serres with recent ecocritical theories to complicate
what might otherwise become a reductive notion of "French
ecocriticism." Working across contemporary philosophy and
literature, the book defines the concept of the ecological as an
attentiveness to specific nature-culture contexts and to a text's
many interdiscursive connections. Posthumus identifies four key
concepts, ecological subjectivity, ecological dwelling, ecological
politics, and ecological ends, for changing how we think about
human-nature relations. French Ecocritique highlights the
importance of moving beyond canonical ecocritical texts and
examining a diversity of cultural and literary traditions for new
ways of imagining the environment.
