Cultural Studies and Environment, Revisited (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Pezzullo, Phaedra. C

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This edited collection illustrates an appreciation of the dynamic, palpable, and significant ways the environment permeates culture (and vice versa), as well as a collective commitment to the ways that cultural studies has more to offer-and to learn from-taking environmental matters to heart. Including research from four continents and across media, the authors offer insights on timely topics such as food, tourism, human/animal relations, forests, queer theory, indigenous rights, and water. This book was published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.
