No full text“Eco-criticism is the study of the relationship between literature and the physical environment”. But this study is performed with keen understanding of the environmental crises of modern times and thus must inform personal and political actions. Eco-criticism is not a new trend but it has been growing continuously for a long time because of the sustained global environmental crises. Many critics emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of the enquiry, which is informed by ecological science, politics, ethics, women’s studies and history among other academic fields. A related but distinct field of literary study, eco-feminist literary criticism, examines the representations of nature by women.
