Most ecocritical scholarship tends to overshadow discussions of wonder with the sublime, failing to treat these two aesthetic categories as distinct. As a result, contemporary scholarship has conflated wonder and the sublime and ultimately lost the nuances that these two concepts conjure for readers and thinkers. Economides illuminates important differences between these aesthetics, particularly their negotiation of issues relevant to gender-based and environmental politics. In turn, readers can utilize the concept of wonder as an open-ended, non-violent framework in contrast to the ethos of domination that often surrounds the sublime. 410 0$aLiteratures, Cultures, and the Environment 606 $aBritish literature 606 $aPostmodernism (Literature) 606 $aLiterature, Modern?20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern?19th century 606 $aBritish and Irish Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000 606 $aPostmodern Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/837000 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/822000 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/821000 615 0$aBritish literature. 615 0$aPostmodernism (Literature). 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?20th century. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?19th century. 615 14$aBritish and Irish Literature. 615 24$aPostmodern Literature. 615 24$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 676 $a820.9145 700 $aEconomides$b Louise$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062486 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255256203321 996 $aThe Ecology of Wonder in Romantic and Postmodern Literature$92526075 997 $aUNINA
