Literary works are endowed with a capacity not only to reflect or to mediate, but to resist our environment, and thus to affect and transform our relation to the physical world. Each essay points to the way literature shapes the human perception of environment as intellectual adventures and forays that draw upon a number of historical, aesthetic, philosophical and phenomenological stances. 410 0$aStudies in environmental humanities ;$vVolume 3. 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aEnvironment (Aesthetics) 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aHuman ecology in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEnvironment (Aesthetics) 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aHuman ecology in literature. 676 $a809/.9336 702 $aSpecq$b Francois 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465971303321 996 $aEnvironmental awareness and the design of literature$92143361 997 $aUNINA
