Climate Change in Literature and Literary Criticism

As an example of scholarly articles on literary criticism published in unusual places, I give you this article: "Climate Change in Literature and Literary Criticism." (Adam Trexler, Adeline Johns-Putra. Wiley Interdiscplinary Reviews, vol. 2, no. 2, March/April 2011.)

From the article:

Also promising is the recent ecocritical collection, Local Natures, Global Responsibilities, which offers a number of different directions for researching literature and climate change and particularly encourages a rethinking of configurations of the local and the global. These include Wolter's reading of Atwood's Oryx and Crake, Zumbansen and Fromme's exploration of Boyle's A Friend of the Earth (both of which we have previously mentioned), and Schroder's critique of The Day after Tomorrow and other Hollywood disaster movies.107 Two other chapters in the collection focus on the relationship between human choice and climate change: Garrard reads novels by Atwood and McEwan in order to argue that the interactions between genes, evolution, and culture need to be better understood in order to address the causes of climate change,108 while Taniama explores the limitations of understanding human character in terms of climate.109

 Sounds like a great endorsement for the collection Local Natures, Global Responsibilities, no? The ISU Library happens to own this book (editors: Laurenz Volkmann, Nancy Grimm, Ines Detmers, and Katrin Thomson; Rodopi, 2010) and it can be found on the 4th floor at this call number: PN1065 L63x 2010.

The rest of the article is well worth a look for anyone interested in how climate change is represented in Anglophone fiction and literary criticism.

New Searching Functions for Google!

Up until last week, you were able to preface a word in your Google search with a plus sign in order to guarantee that the word would show up in every website that Google returned. Not any more. Now it's all about the double quotes. Savvy searchers know that it's a good idea to put a phrase in quotes to ensure that the resulting "hits" contain that very phrase, and not just words in the phrase scattered about. Now it's time to put double quotes around single words to ensure that everything Google gives you includes the terms you want.

(Thanks to my colleague Steve McMinn for pointing this out.)
