Daniel Swift reviews "Literature and Nature in the English Renaissance: An Ecocritical Anthology," a new book by Todd Andrew Borlik.
Shakespeare was the great poet of disrupted weather. There is the unusually hot day in Romeo and Juliet when the fight breaks out between Romeo and Tybalt; there are the disrupted seasons and rotten harvests of A Midsummer Night’s Dream...

Gortain a’ Ghibain 5’ 32”
I’m reflecting on my recent work so that I can further explore the ecosophical perspective in photographic art. In my latest project I looked at the process of encroachment in villages of the Scottish Clearances, as I integrated critical theory within photographic practice. My images in the series Another Path http://www.irrationalangle.com/another-path/ embrace the environment from the perspective of a green gaze that respects human intervention without exploitation of natural resources and the corresponding right of nature to reclaim its territory.
In this blog I’ll be further exploring the theories and ideologies of environmental, ecocritical and ecosophical perspectives in visual imagery and how power, exploitation, social equity and lifestyle are represented in contemporary architectural photography and urban landscapes. These theoretical considerations take place at today’s convergence of ecological crisis and the digital age and question the human condition in these times. I hope to be able to contribute to the contemporary photographic debate on photography in relation to these perspectives and the use of image in commercial architecture, real estate development and spatial interpretation at social and personal level.

"It wasn't the land that evicted the people, it was other people"
Consider, for instance, the hierarchy of entities that go by the name of landscape: first, a specimen (say, a specific painting by John Constable); second, a genre (the whole class of things called landscape painting, with its specific history in Western painting and beyond); third, landscape considered as a medium, the actual countryside or lived space of a people, including the specific concrete place in the Stour valley where Constable lived and painted. The dialectics of species and specimen, stereotype and individual, class and member, image and picture cut across all these levels of attention. That is why landscape itself is such an ambiguous term, referring at once to the represented motif in a painting, the painting itself, and the genre to which it belongs."

Foodscapes of Contemporary Japanese Women Writers: An Ecocritical Journey around the Hearth of Modernity (Literatures, Cultures, and the Environment)
Food binds us to each other and to the environment. The ways, however, that food brings together various forms of life transforms in different times and places. Here, Yuki explores the logics and systems of value that surround food consumption, distribution, and production as expressed in the works of four female Japanese authors: Ishimure Michiko, Taguchi Randy, Morisaki Kazue, and Nashiki Kaho.…
