East Asian Ecocriticisms cover

East Asian Ecocriticisms presents original essays from Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China that define and characterize trends in East Asian ecocriticism. Drawing on diverse theoretical perspectives in environmental thought and scholarship, this volume presents valuable and original contributions to global conversations.

"Taking up matters from restoration of the ancient Cheongye stream as an urban water park in downtown Seoul to the fight to protect the pink dolphins of Western Taiwan from petrochemical plant pollution, the volume succeeds in giving an East Asian voice and specificity to globally experienced environmental concerns . . . Reecommended." - CHOICE
