Ecology in Relation to Ecocriticism � A Theoretical Approach

V. Shoba, Dr. P. Nagaraj

Abstract :

One has to learn from nature, failing, he had not lived at all is the opinion of Henry David Thoreau. Whatever human beings do to the ecosystem have the reflections back. If man does not harm nature, the nature keeps him safe. Ecological concerns have become the centre of today’s discussion. Literature has been responding to the world with its various changes throughout ages. Literary writers have made enormous contributions in representing the world, analyzing its various changes and projecting perspectives in various forms in order to entertain and enlighten the global masses. Though common population was aware of the hazards in the ecosystem to some extend, the literary writers spurred them through their works. The literary writers started relating the environment with humans and named the study “Ecocriticism”. A theoretical analysis of ecocriticism is being dealt in this article.
