Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Didactics - English - Literature, Works, grade: 2, University of Münster, language: English, abstract: Ecocriticism is still on its academic margins. Nevertheless, depending on the text onedeals with, nature plays a vital role in understanding and analyzing literature.1 Thepresent essay focuses on the views of nature in the short story "The De Wets come toKloof Grange" by Doris Lessing.2The Dictionary defines nature as "everything that exists in the worldindependently of people, such as plants and animals, earth and rocks, and the weather"3.Yet, in order to analyze nature in its literary context, it is important to point out thatculture has a great impact on nature and its understanding.4 To analyze the view ofnature, it is vital to recognize that the nature-culture distinction is not always absoluteand clear cut.5 There is nature, and culture, and states partaking in both. Barryintroduces the "outdoor environment [...] [as a] series of adjoining and overlappingareas which move gradually form nature to culture"6. To answer the question hownature is displayed within the story and hence to be able to draw a conclusion fromthese particular views of nature, different areas will be used to classify nature in itscultural context. Taking Barry's classification7 into account, the view of nature in thestory "The De Wets come to Kloof Grange"8 will in the following be associated withthree distinctive areas. Area one is referred to as the scenic sublime. It includes, forinstance, forests, mountains and rivers. Moreover, there is area two, the countryside,which implies hills, fields, woods, etc. The greatest impact of culture can be found inarea three, the domestic picturesque. It describes such things as parks and gardens.
