Envisioning Ecofeminism
Approaches to Environmental Futures in Popular Genre Fiction
Description
This open access book argues for a closer look at applications of ecofeminism in current popular genre fiction. As discussions of the development of climate change and new understandings of the term “Anthropocene” are being circulated in the public now more than any other time, creators have been using their fictional spaces to perform thought experiments of moral, scientific, and social approaches to addressing our future. While engaging with aspects of environmentalism in fiction is not new, the conversations are increasing across media spaces. This project approaches these works by centering intersections of gender and the environment. This book seeks to generate new conversations of ways popular media inspires conversations, ideas, and approaches to living and surviving within the Anthropocene.
