Rezensionen

"The core chapters will certainly serve as useful critical companions to graduate and undergraduate courses on literature, visual art, and landscape seeking a diversity of global perspectives. ... The Environmental Imaginary also makes an important contribution to the burgeoning field of the environmental humanities by questioning the very terms in which current debates over development, climate change, and the value of the human and the more-than-human are carried out." (Darien Lamen, Luso-Brazilian Revie, Vol. 53 (2), Winter, 2016)
