Scarborough, Connie, Inscribing the Environment: Ecocritical Approaches to Medieval Spanish Literature, Berlín, Walter de Gruyter (Fundamentals of Medieval and Early Modern Culture, 13), 2013, viii + 187 pp.

Resum

Ecocriticism as a theoretical model has primarily been used in the study of Romantic, post-Romantic, and contemporary literary texts. Applications of the concepts to medieval literature, however, are a fairly recent phenomenon. This book examines key, canonical works from medieval Spain, showing how descriptions of the natural world in these texts are informed by both the authors' perceptions of the environment and established literary models.
