By examining these literatures across a range of geographical locations and historical periods -- from Romantic period travel writing to Chinese science fiction and Aboriginal Australian poetry -- the book makes a compelling case for the need for ecocriticism to competently translate between Indigenous and non-Indigenous, planetary and local, and contemporary and pre-modern perspectives. Leading scholars from Australasia and North America explore links between Indigenous knowledges, Romanticism, globalisation, avant-garde poetics and critical theory in order to chart tensions as well as affinities between these discourses in a variety of genres of environmental representation, including science fiction, poetry, colonial natural history and oral narrative."-- $c Provided by publisher 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Chapter 1: Thinking about transcultural ecocriticism: Space, scale and translation / Stuart Cooke and Peter Denney -- Part I: Planetary localities.
