Hunter As Preserver An Ecocritical Evaluation Of Jim Corbett

The science of ecology as a faculty of study deals extensively with myriad aspects related to fundamental elements existing in the universe. Along with various aspects, manages cooperation between singular living beings and their surroundings, which incorporates connections with both nonspecific and individuals from different species. The interaction amplifies proportion and ratio of enquiry into relationship among various elements existing in environment and their interlinking; the aspect has proved to be beneficial in terms of internalizing characteristic features and delineate explicit patterns of ecology

This is the academic Age of the Neoliberal Arts. Campuses—as places characterized by democratic debate and controversy, wide ranges of opinion typical of vibrant public spheres, and service to the larger society—are everywhere being creatively destroyed in order to accord with market and military models befitting the academic-industrial complex. While it has become increasingly clear that facilitating the sustainability movement is the great 21st century educational challenge at hand, this book asserts that it is both a dangerous and criminal development today that sustainability in higher education has come to be defined by the complex-friendly “green campus” initiatives of science, technology, engineering and management programs. By contrast, Greening the Academy: Ecopedagogy Through the Liberal Arts takes the standpoints of those working for environmental and ecological justice in order to critique the unsustainable disciplinary limitations within the humanities and social sciences, as well as provide tactical reconstructive openings toward an empowered liberal arts for sustainability. Greening the Academy thus hopes to speak back with a collective demand that sustainability education be defined as a critical and moral vocation comprised of the diverse types of humanistic study that will benefit the well-being of our emerging planetary community and its numerous common locales.

Document from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, grade: Ecopoetry, , language: English, abstract: Eco-poetry is an emerging field of this postmodern world. We find that the poetry was taken as a piece of romantic enjoyment but the recent trends in research have changed its place in the literary canon and the new Eco-poetic genre is being created to make an academic atmosphere for the safeguard of the environment. In 1962 William Carson in his study Silent Spring wrote that the pesticides that American's use has a negative effect on the species as well as on human body. Carson's argument gave world a new eco consciousness and they made efforts to preserve the ecosystem. Human beings were in great slumber and they were not knowing which color there is of and it was with the maiden discovery of Apollo 11 which not only made its maiden landing on the moon but it kept human consciousness in zeal when it took the photographs of the earth and these photographs made us realize that the globe we are living in is green and has a variety of life and rest are lifeless objects. Worldwide conferences are being held to have an environmental consciousness and millions of dollars are being spent in this or that way to bring the planet in its original shape but unfortunately we say a lot and do less. Therefore to give safeguard to this globe it is our prime duty to make ECO FRONTS from all sides including academic one so that globe could sustain its greenery in balance, as we know that this globe is full of colors and the poets have sung about these colorful aspects not to romanticize the things but to give an ecological consciousness. The present study is an eco-poetic dialogue based on Indian poetry from Tagore to present and this study has tried to highlight how poetry could be helpful to save the world and its colorful species from extinction. Thus the eco-poetic study has tried to reveal many truths about Indian ecology as how Indian poets whether here or in Diaspora see the present Indian ecology. India a growing economy on all fronts is going through a huge developmental changes. The Word Ecocriticism though belongs to white race but has similar apprehension for the entire globe and the word was used by William Rueckert in Literature and Ecology: An Experiment in Ecocriticism in 1978 to highlight the ecological problems depicted through literature. Thus present study has tried to highlight some of the ecological problems which India is facing at present and to show all these problems effort has been made to show an eco-historical perspective.

Ace hunter and wildlife chronicler Kenneth Anderson recalls real-life jungle tales, some macabre and some incredible, of adventures in pursuit of man-eating tigers and leopards. He brings the animal and human characters alive against the background of the jungle and the excitement and danger their co-existence generates.

Ecocriticism is one of the most vibrant fields of cultural study today, and environmental issues are controversial and topical. This volume captures the excitement of green reading, reflects on its relationship to the modern academy, and provides practical guidance for dealing with global scale, interdisciplinarity, apathy and scepticism.

Many canonical literary works look to the wild as the site for establishing a man's selfhood. But nature is just as often subjected to his most violent displays of mastery. This tension lies at the heart of 'Eco-Man', which brings together two rapidly growing fields: men's studies and ecocriticism.

Since the rise of the contemporary ecology movement in the 1960s, American songwriters and composers, from folk singer Pete Seeger to jazz saxophonist Paul Winter, have lamented, and protested against, environmental degradation and injustice. The Jukebox in the Garden is the first book to survey a wide range of musical styles, including folk, country, blues, rock, jazz, electronica and hip hop, to examine the different ways in which popular music has explored American relationships between nature, technology and environmental politics. It also investigates the growing link between music and philosophical thought, particularly under the influence of both deep ecology and New Age thinking, according to which music, amongst all the arts, has a special affinity with ecological ideas. This book is both an exploration and critique of such speculations on the role that music can play in raising environmental awareness. It combines description and analysis of American popular music made during the era of modern environmentalism with a consideration of its wider social, historical and political contexts. It will be of interest to undergraduates and post-graduates in music, cultural studies and environmental studies, as well as general readers interested in popular music and the environment.
