Description
Within early modern scholarship, ecocriticism has steadily gained footing, and early modern literary studies looks increasingly 'green'; yet the field lacks an accessible collection on reading and teaching early modern texts ecocritically. Filling this gap in the literature, this book includes a diverse selection of chapters that engage the complex issues that arise when reading and teaching early modern texts from a green perspective.
