Chinese Environmental Humanitiesshowcases contemporary ecocritical approaches to Chinese culture and aesthetic production as practiced in China itself and beyond. As the first collaborative environmental humanities project of this kind, this book brings together sixteen scholars from a diverse range of disciplines, including literary and cultural studies, philosophy, ecocinema and ecomedia studies, religious studies, minority studies, and animal or multispecies studies. The fourteen chapters are conceptually framed through the lens of the Chinese termhuanjing(environment or "encircling the surroundings"), a critical device for imagining the aesthetics and politics of place-making, or "the practice of environing at the margin." The discourse of environing at the margins facilitates consideration of the modes, aesthetics, ethics, and politics of environmental inclusion and exclusion, providing a lens into the environmental thinking and practices of the world's most populous society. | Chinese Environmental Humanities by Chia-ju Chang, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
