Beskrivning
Selfie: Poetry, Social Change & Ecological Connection presents the first general theory that links poetry in environmental thought to poetry as an environment. James Sherry accomplishes this task with a network model of connectivity that scales from the individual to social to environmental practices. Selfie demonstrates how parts of speech, metaphor, and syntax extend bidirectionally from the writer to the world and from the writer inward to identities that promote sustainable practices. Selfie shows how connections in the biosphere scale up from operating within the body, to social structures, to the networks that science has identified for all life. The book urges readers to construct plural identifications rather than essential claims of identity in support of environmental diversity.

Recensioner i media

“James Sherry’s newest critical study … is a fascinating read for poets and anyone who cares about eco-poetics, eco-criticism, and the role of poetry within a world assailed by the effects of global warming. … The text fittingly plays itself in many styles-incorporating abstracts, summary, argumentation, bullet points, diagrams, poetry from a wide range of sources, note-form italicized text, as well as world of examples and clarifications, switching easily between the serious, the playful … .” (Abigail Ardelle Zammit, Poetry International, poetryinternationalonline.com, 2022)
