The book explores the central claim of ecofeminism-that there is a connection between environmental degradation and the subordination of women-with the goal of identifying and fostering liberatory alternatives. 606 $aEcofeminism in literature 606 $aEcocriticism in literature 606 $aFeminist literary criticism 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aEcology in literature 606 $aHuman ecology in literature 606 $aFeminism and literature$zUnited States 606 $aWomen and literature$zUnited States 606 $aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEcofeminism in literature. 615 0$aEcocriticism in literature. 615 0$aFeminist literary criticism. 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aEcology in literature. 615 0$aHuman ecology in literature. 615 0$aFeminism and literature 615 0$aWomen and literature 615 0$aAmerican literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a810.9/355 701 $aVakoch$b Douglas A$01130016 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811622703321 996 $aFeminist ecocriticism$93931895 997 $aUNINA
