Description

An indispensable survey of methods in ecocritical art history.Ecocriticism is one of the most important and exciting developments in current art history. This is the first book to provide a survey of its methods, showing what they can offer art historians. It also indicates what the interdisciplinary project of ecocriticism stands to gain from art historians, their methods and practices.The book assembles twenty-three essays written by international scholars that span a wide range of methodological approaches, including ecofeminism, planetary ecologies, material ecocriticism, ecopolitics, and indigenous ecopoetics. The essays are framed by a series of editorial introductions that provide orientation within a disciplinary territory that is still in a state of flux. Written in clear, jargon-free language, they are accompanied by thematically arranged lists of bibliographies to facilitate further study and empower readers to approach the study of art enriched with ecocritical tools.This book is an indispensable resource for art history in the twenty-first century.Parts of this book are open access and can be read on our platform manchesterhive here: https://www.manchesterhive.com/display/9781526180582/9781526180582.xml
