When researching these areas separately, there is a wealth of information. However, when researching Appalachian ecocriticism, there is a clear disparity with Appalachian Ecocriticism and the Paradox of Place the only book-length scholarly collection of Appalachian ecocriticism. Appalachian Ecocriticism and the Paradox of Place is a collection of scholarly essays that engage environmental and ecocritical theories and Appalachian literature and film. These essays, many from well-established Appalachian Studies and Southern Studies scholars and ecocritics, engage with a variety of ecocritical methodologies including ecofeminism, ecospiritualism, queer ecocriticism, and materialist ecocriticism, just to name a few. Adding Appalachian voices to the larger ecocritical discourse is vital, not only for the sake of increased diversity, but also to allow those unfamiliar with the region and its works to better understand the Appalachian region in a critical and authentic way. Including Appalachia in the larger ecocritical community allows for the study of how the region, its issues, and its texts intersect with a variety of communities, opening up boundless possibilities for learning and analysis"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 00 $t What Lies Beyond the Summit: The Future of Appalachian Ecocriticism Toward a Post-Appalachian Sense of Place / $r Zackary Vernon. $t Trailhead: Our Point of Origin. $t Perception and the Nature of Ethics: How to Learn about the Ethics of Place from Literature / $r M.
