Ecofeminism is an emerging field of literary study which seeks to explore the interconnections between feminism and ecology, green studies and market economy, and globalization and the politics of care. It also examines the idea of nature as a mother figure, and the world being begotten by the celestial intercourse between Nature, the Mother and God, the Father. This branch of study is taking center stage in the realm of gender studies, but it is yet to develop into a full school of thought, as new dimensions are constantly being attached to it. This volume seeks to take a multi-disciplinary approach to address the issues most pertinent to ecofeminism, and to do so from various perspectives, so that any sort of hegemonic categorization may be avoided.

  • “This book addresses ecofeminism’s need to engage with violence and damaging earth. The international voices collected in this edition grapple with intellectual challenges of our time, including space, eco-theology, environmental ethics, embodiment, capitalism, colonization, activism, and other current issues. Through a unique combination of interdisciplinary and global perspectives that are in dialogue with ecofeminism, this book offers important insights on various cultural and literary theories of ecofeminism, situating them in conversation with other interpretations and analyses of the intersections between environment, gender, and culture in the era of Anthropocene.”
