Sommario/riassunto |
|
"By recognizing the groundbreaking work of many non-Italian ecocritics, and linking to the homegrown contributions of Serenella Lovino, Marco Armerio, and Giovanna Ricoveri, the authors of Ecocritical Approaches to Italian Culture and Literature: The Denatured Wild, challenge the narrowly defined conventions of Italian Studies and illuminates the complexities of an Italian ecocriticism that reveals a rich environmentally engaged literary and cultural tradition" -- |
