内容説明

This book brings together contributions from scholars across the humanities. A wide-ranging exploration of the interface between performance and nature. Examines the use and usefulness of ideas of `performance' for understanding human-nature relationships. Draws on different disciplines and intellectual traditions and on different conceptions of `performance' and `nature'. Contributions are rooted in real-world contexts and problems, explored through detailed ethnographic work. Explores domains as diverse as allotments and bioinvasion, fox hunting and green politics. Makes a distinctive contribution to the `cultural turn' in environmental research.
