Abstract | ||||
At the present time, the whole world is concerned with the ecological crisis which has enormous effects on human life. Therefore, in her latest collection, A History of Kindness (2020), Linda Hogan, who is considered as one of the leading poets of Nature, calls for ecological harmony. In fact, Hogan's A History of Kindness is viewed like a call for reconcilement between the human and nonhuman worlds. This paper aims to provide an eco-critical analysis of selected poems in Hogan's A History of Kindness to demonstrate how human culture concerning environment affects and is affected by Nature. Thus, the paper points out to Hogan's views of Nature and environment which are affected by her Indigenous American Indian culture. In addition, it tries to reveal Hogan's views of the crisis of environmental degradation and her solution of the crisis through her call for integration into Nature. | ||||
