Abstract

This issue of de genere moves beyond the woman-nature connection, with the aim of exploring the evolving entanglements between feminist and intersectional ecologies across literary and visual media. By focusing on a variety of national contexts, the essays explore how ecofeminist and intersectional approaches can unsettle normative environmental discourses and foreground alternative epistemologies and political imaginaries. Rather than focusing solely on the overlaps between feminism and environmentalism, we aim at highlighting their tensions, contradictions, and alliances, echoing Alaimo’s assertion in Exposed: Environmental Politics and Pleasures in Posthuman Times (2016) that their intersections are “generative – far beyond the territory where they overlap” (12).
