Bad Land Pastoralism in Great Plains Fiction

Klappentext What is the relationship between aesthetics and activism, between art and community? By using a pastoral lens to examine ten fictional narratives that chronicle the dialogue between human culture and nonhuman nature on the Great Plains, this explores literary treatments of a succession of abrupt cultural transitions from the Euroamerican conquest of the "Indian wilderness” in the nineteenth century to the Buffalo Commons phenomenon in the twentieth.
