Most ecocritical scholarship tends to overshadow discussions of wonder with the sublime, failing to treat these two aesthetic categories as distinct. As a result, contemporary scholarship has conflated wonder and the sublime and ultimately lost the nuances that these two concepts conjure for readers and thinkers. Economides illuminates important differences between these aesthetics, particularly their negotiation of issues relevant to gender-based and environmental politics. In turn, readers can utilize the concept of wonder as an open-ended, non-violent framework in contrast to the ethos of domination that often surrounds the sublime. 000755387 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed June 6, 2016). 000755387 650_0 $$aRomanticism$$zEngland. 000755387 650_0 $$aPostmodernism (Literature)$$zEngland. 000755387 650_0 $$aWonder in literature. 000755387 650_0 $$aEcocriticism. 000755387 650_0 $$aEnglish literature$$xHistory and criticism. 000755387 650_0 $$aNature in literature. 000755387 650_0 $$aSublime, The, in literature. 000755387 830_0 $$aLiteratures, cultures, and the environment. 000755387 852__ $$bebk 000755387 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-47750-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755387 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755387$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755387 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755387 980__ $$aBIB 000755387 982__ $$aEbook 000755387 983__ $$aOnline 000755387 994__ $$a92$$bISE
