Abstract:

This book explores how language and communication shape the
increasingly entangled lives of people and sea turtles at the nexus of
sea turtle conservation and ecotourism. Here, new ecocultural
identities are taking shape as people strive to make sense of their
shifting multispecies landscape, and as sea turtles gradually reclaim
beaches after decades of absence.
The book offers researchers in ecolinguistics and related ecologically
engaged fields in discourse analysis an integrative theoretical and
methodological approach to empirically investigate the human and
'more-than-human' discourses and practices shaping problematic
human-wildlife interaction. Containing short vignettes in each chapter
covering the biology and behaviours of sea turtles, this book suggests
how discourse analysts might contribute to a 'life-sustaining
multispecies ethics' in an uncertain socio-ecological time
increasingly being referred to as the Anthropocene.
