A challenge was issued to imagine counter natures, past or present, casting nature as a normative concept into productive relief. One ambition was to highlight shifting perspectives on nature and the environment that may help account for the rise of the environmental humanities; another was to invite challenges to orthodoxies, including those that animate this burgeoning field. Contributions emerged from the study areas of Environmental History, Ecocriticism, Cultural Studies, American Studies, Caribbean Studies, Scandinavian Studies, Media Studies, and the History of Ideas. This volume draws together the fruits of this thought experiment. 410 0$aStudies in environmental humanities ;$vVolume 4. 606 $aNature$xEffect of human beings$xHistory$vSources 606 $aHuman ecology$xHistory$vSources 606 $aScience and the humanities 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aHuman ecology in literature 606 $aNature in art 606 $aHuman ecology in art 606 $aNature (Aesthetics) 606 $aEnvironment (Aesthetics) 606 $aDiscourse analysis 615 0$aNature$xEffect of human beings$xHistory 615 0$aHuman ecology$xHistory 615 0$aScience and the humanities. 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aHuman ecology in literature. 615 0$aNature in art. 615 0$aHuman ecology in art. 615 0$aNature (Aesthetics) 615 0$aEnvironment (Aesthetics) 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 676 $a304.2 702 $aHartman$b Steven P.$f1965- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792737903321 996 $aContesting environmental imaginaries$93747853 997 $aUNINA
