Table of ContentsReviews"""Kathrin Bartha’s Cosmological Readings of Contemporary Australian Literature is an important new work of Australian ecocriticism. Drawing on recent work on literature and the Anthropocene, Bartha’s book offers a model for reading Australian literature cosmologically. Bartha’s readings emphasise interconnections between beings, agencies and systems that work against the traditional humanistic focus of western prose fiction and offer a critical new dimension to Australian literary studies."" Tony Hughes-d’Aeth, Chair of Australian Literature, The University of Western Australia ""An innovative intervention in the environmental humanities, this thought-provoking study of contemporary Australian literature makes a powerful case for the generative concept of cosmos and, more broadly, for the importance of literary studies within the wider field.""
