9781843846970: The Literature and Politics of the Environment

Synopsis

Examines three interrelated strands: material ecologies, past and present British politics, and the act of writing itself. Contributions ask how life writing, nature writing, creative nonfiction, and autobiography - although genres entrenched in capitalist political realities - can also confront these by reinserting personal experience. Can we bring a more sustainable planet into being by focusing on those literary forms which have the ability to imagine the conditions and systems needed to do so?
