Informationen zum Autor Joshua Schuster is an assistant professor of English at the University of Western Ontario. Klappentext Explores the unexpected absence of an environmental ethic in American modernist and avant-garde poetics.

He posits that that the curious failure of modernist poets to develop an environmental ethnic was a deliberate choice and not an inadvertent omission.
