Abstract

This new collection of essays makes a fresh and invigorating contribution to the field of environmental humanities, and to the development of our understanding of the complex intersections between literary and scientific discourse within the long nineteenth century. In its focus on interventions made by literary women writers in the discourse of natural history, the book also enhances our awareness of the many and various, but often unacknowledged, contributions made by women writers to the field of natural history within novels, creative non-fiction and poetry of the period.
