It illuminates the multi-layered, polyvocal ways in which artistic expressions render ecological connections, drawing on scholars working in collaboration with Indigenous artists from all walks of life, including film, literature, performance, and other forms of multimedia to expand existing conversations. Both local and global in its focus, the volume includes essays from multiethnic and Indigenous communities across the world, visiting topics such as Navajo opera, Sami film production history, south Indian tribal documentary, Maori art installations, Native American and First Nations science-fiction literature and film, Amazonian poetry, and many others. Highlighting trans-Indigenous sensibilities that speak to worldwide crises of environmental politics and action against marginalization, the collection alerts readers to movements of community resilience and resistance, cosmological thinking about inter- and intra-generational multi-species relations, and understandings of indigenous aesthetics and material ecologies. It engages with emerging environmental concepts such as multispecies ethnography, cosmopolitics, and trans-indigeneity, as well as with new areas of ecocritical research such as material ecocriticism, biosemiotics, and media studies. In its breadth and scope, this book promises new directions for ecocritical thought and environmental humanities practice, providing thought-provoking insight into what it means to be human in a locally situated, globally networked, and cosmologically complex world" -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Environmental protection and motion pictures. 650 0 $a Indigenous peoples and mass media. 650 0 $a Ecology in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Indians in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Documentary films $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Performing arts $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Indigenous peoples $x Intellectual life. 650 0 $a Indigenous peoples $x Ecology. 650 0 $a Ecocriticism. 700 1 $a Monani, Salma, $e editor. 700 1 $a Adamson, Joni, $d 1958- $e editor. 830 0 $a Routledge interdisciplinary perspectives on literature ; $v 69. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220902014316.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7CE57444B85D11E6BDBAC4DDDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
