This edited volume brings together fresh voices, both emerging and established, on the ecocritical landscape within African literatures and cultures. In the era of the Anthropocene, the editors and contributors demonstrate how African cultural products address climate and ecological concerns, including activism, animal and plant conservation, climate change, environmental degradation, food security, disasters, ecosystems, and social injustice. The volume offers critical and comparative analyses that transcend the boundaries of languages, places, and textual genres. Significantly, it foregrounds the intersectionality of ecological issues with social, economic, and political dimensions. By doing so, it highlights how environmental challenges are intricately linked to questions of identity, space, justice, and indigenous knowledge systems. While espousing classical textual analysis and beginning to gesture towards empirical experimentation, the volume exemplifies ongoing decolonial and postcolonial approaches in environmental humanities from the African continent and the Global South/Majority.
