Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Jada Ach's scholarship in Sand, Water, Salt: Managing the Elements in Literature of the American West, 18801925 seeks to reevaluate the Progressive Era's environmental legacy. Taking an ecocritical approach to turn-of-the-century literature set in the American West, Ach interrogates texts by asking what kinds of environmental, national, and cultural stories the elements have to tell about land and oceanic management. Sand, Water, Salt investigates managerial engagements with dynamic ecologies in three particular Western environments: the arid deserts, the semiarid high plains, and the Pacific Ocean.At different times, and to varying degrees, Americans have deemed these environments economically unproductive, incompatible with Anglo-American settlement, and/or highly unmanageable. Despite these varied complaints, the United States has also intensely desired these 'wasteland' spaces, perceiving them as sources of both national wealth and elite pleasure. Sand, Water, Salt moves through a variety of novels, memoirs, and cultural artifacts from the 1880s to the 1920s, including L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Frank Norris's McTeague, Mary Hunter Austin's The Land of Little Rain, The Virginian by Owen Wister, Life among the Piutes by Sarah Winnemucca, as well as Jack London's The Sea-Wolf and Yone Noguchi's The American Diary of a Japanese Girl. Ach ultimately asks what we gain by looking back at fin-de-siècle American literature with a queer, ecological justice-oriented eye, a particularly invigorating conversation that uniquely uses the elements as foci.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Exploring the ongoing histories of human-centered ecosystem management in the lands and waters that comprise what is now known as North America, this book tracks the diverse ways in which human-environmental relations have been presented across different forms of media.Including literature, film, visual arts, performing arts, park interpretive materials, and more, the book analyzes the many ways in which human-environmental relations have been articulated, experienced, understood, represented, and regulated. The collection encourages a reimagining of what it means to manage environmental elements beyond the limits of utility, commodification, and control. To that end, the contributions interrogate the concept of 'management' itself, arguing instead for a more expansive conception of reciprocal relations among humans and the more-than-human world. These relations encompass many kinds of human-environmental engagements, ranging from constructing dams and using prairie soils for paint pigments, to gathering pollen and cultivating grass for memorial sites. In particular, the book highlights the potential in Indigenous ecological approaches to living with lands and waters, underscoring the need to lovingly engage with the world that sustains us. In the spirit of inquiry and reorientation, this interdisciplinary book begins with a 'Keywords' section. Entries for key terms, such as wilderness, allotment, reclamation, fugitive sand, and reciprocity, detail the word's history, outline its role in various discourses, and/or suggest possibilities for future research.This book will be of value to a wide range of readers, including researchers and students in environmental humanities, literature, ecocritical theory, history, Indigenous studies, legal studies, natural resources, sociology, environmental studies, and anthropology.…
