Title: Ecological Form
Description: Hensley and Steer look to join the conceptual tools of contemporary  ecocriticism with the rich archive of nineteenth century thinking about  imperial and ecological intertwinement. This collection of essays draws  on that archive to demonstrate the relevance of Victorian thought for  current theory and practice. Ecological Form argues that ecology, the  empire, and literary thinking were inseparable during the Victorian  period; and its claim that connections among these domains challenge the  methodological assumptions of both contemporary ecocriticism and  literary and cultural studies
