Summary:
"
L
.M.
Montgomery
's writings are replete with enchanting, yet subtle and fluid depictions of
nature
that convey her intense appreciation for the natural world. At a time of ecological crises, intensifying environmental anxiety, and burgeoning eco-critical perspectives,
L
.M.
Montgomery
and the
Matter
of
Nature
(s) repositions the Canadian author'
s
relationship to
nature
in terms of current environmental criticism across several disciplines, introducing a fresh approach to her life and work. Drawing on a wide range of
Montgomery
's novels as well as her journals, this collection suggests that socio-ecological relationships encompass ideas of reciprocity, affiliation, autonomy, and the capacity for transformation in both the human and more-than-human worlds, and that these ideas are integral to
Montgomery
's vision and her literary legacy. Framed by the twin themes of materiality and interrelationships, essays by scholars of literature, law, animal studies, anthropology, and ecology examine place, embodiment, and difference in
Montgomery
's works and embrace the multiplicities embedded in the concept of
nature
. Through innovative critical approaches,
L
.M.
Montgomery
and the
Matter
of
Nature
(s) opens up conversations about humans' interactions with
nature
and the material environment."--From publisher.
