This book is the first book devoted entirely to Hughes as an
environmental activist and writer. Drawing on the rapidly-growing
interest in poetry and the environment, the book deploys insights
from ecopoetics, ecocriticism and Anthropocene studies to analyse
how Hughes's poetry reflects his environmental awareness. Hughes's
understanding of environmental issues is placed within the context
of twentieth-century developments in 'green' ideology and politics,
challenging earlier scholars who have seen his work as apolitical.
The unique strengths of this book lie in its combination of
cutting-edge insights on ecocriticism with extensive work on the
British Library's new Ted Hughes archive. It will appeal to readers
who enjoy Hughes's work, as well as students and academics.
