Beschreibung
The collective monograph Environmental Justice in Ethnic American Literature analyzes texts by authors whose works and literary imaginations capture the tangible and often unavoidable problems faced by African American, Hispanic, Asian American, and Indigenous communities in confronting the impacts of environmental racism. The contributions cover a wide range of (sub)genres – from farm novels to climate fiction, environmental drama, and dystopia to environmental poetry. The individual chapters demonstrate the diverse and inventive solutions that fictional works offer in achieving environmental justice, and the authors highlight the potential of literature and literary studies to uncover the causes and effects of environmental injustice through their analyses and interpretations.
