Coding Literary Ecologies

1. Abstract

Literary scholarship tends to treat the natural world as the stage upon which narrative unfolds, rather than the essential pre-condition for existence. “Coding Literary Ecologies” brings the environmental features of literary texts into detailed relief in a playful yet strategic manner. It is comprised of four web-based applications, each accompanied by an essay that situates it within literary history and contextualizes it within contemporary discourse about the digital and environmental humanities.
