Ecolinguistics: Language, Ecology, and the Stories We Live is a groundbreaking work that delves into the underlying narratives that perpetuate unequal and unsustainable societies, while also seeking to uncover inspiring forms of language that can contribute to the reconstruction of a more compassionate and ecologically sustainable world. This revised and expanded edition brings together the latest advancements in ecolinguistics, merging them with new theoretical insights and practical analyses.
The book offers a comprehensive theoretical framework and practical tools for examining the primary texts that shape the society we inhabit. Through a series of examples, including the portrayal of environmental refugees in the media, the construction of the self-centered consumer in economics textbooks, the similarities between climate change denial and coronavirus denial, the erasure of nature in the Sustainable Development Goals, creation myths and their role in orienting individuals towards the natural world, and inspirational forms of language found in nature writing, Japanese haiku, and Native American writing, the theory is illustrated and brought to life.
This edition not only offers an updated theoretical framework but also includes new example analyses and an additional chapter on narratives. Furthermore, it is accompanied by a free online course featuring videos, PowerPoint presentations, notes, and exercises (www.storiesweliveby.org.uk). This resource is invaluable for undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers engaged in the fields of discourse analysis, environmental studies, and communication studies.
