dc.description.abstractThis is a work of ecocriticism—the interdisciplinary study of literature and environment— which takes as its point of departure the environmental and literary insights of Amitav Ghosh in The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable (2016). According to Ghosh the conventions of literary realism, and the context within which those conventions gained ascendancy, present a range of shortcomings in respect of the depiction of climate change in literature.en_US
