להגדלת הטקסט להקטנת הטקסט- ספר
Myth and Environment in Recent Southwestern Literature challenges readers' understanding of where the mythic Southwest and ecological consciousness meet. The book establishes conceptual connections between literature, ecocriticism, and feminist, postcolonial, and psychoanalytic theory to recover the creative imagination in redemptive figurations of the Southwest that may help foster environmental responsibility.
