This seminar will investigate how ecological challenges and social
threats (including military conflicts and ecological and social damage
caused by wars) are reflected in ecological texts and discourses, and
how these texts and discourses respond to and react against such
challenges and threats by proposing practical solutions and positive
change. The contributions to the seminar will scrutinise ecological
texts and discourses (literary and non-literary, verbal and
multimodal, contemporary and non-contemporary) by applying various
theoretical frameworks and methodologies. These may include, but are
not limited to, ecolinguistics, stylistics, positive and critical
discourse analysis, ecocriticism and environmental communication (both
with a linguistic approach). Of particular interest will be
contributions adopting interdisciplinary frameworks, or falling within
disciplines, like pragmatics, which are less frequently employed to
explore ecological discourse.
