Title: Hemingway and Ecocriticism
Description: Hemingway and Ecocriticism focuses on the famous author's short stories from ecocritical perspectives, which are concerned with the relationship between humans and the landscape and plead for a better understanding of nature. Of Hemingway's first 49 short stories, 22 exhibit ecological concerns in some form or other. They reveal great damage caused to nature and human beings alike. G. Srilatha holds that while Hemingway was an unabashed hunter, fisher, and sportsman, he was also a conservationist and conveyed this attitude in most of his stories. Many show that human and biological environments are mutually interdependent. Despite ecological devastation, Hemingway's protagonists turn to nature to escape from the trauma of war and to seek solace.
