Nature / Ecology

Creative Responses to Environmental Crises and Aesthetics in Nordic Art and Literature gives a broad perspective on artistic responses to climate change and other environmental crises in the Nordic countries. Showcasing examples of environmental literature, visual art and entertainment from Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands, the chapters of the volume reflect the complex interplay of the local, regional and global in environmental art and activism. Authored by established and notable scholars in the field of Nordic ecocriticism, the volume highlights the complex and vital role art, literature, and other creative activities assume in times of crisis.

Auður Aðalsteinsdóttir is research lector and director of the University of Iceland's Research Centre in Þingeyjarsveit.
Katarina Leppänen is professor of intellectual history at the Department of Literature, History of Ideas, and Religion at the University of Gothenburg.
