Description

This book examines Andrea Zanzottos poetry through the lens of ecocriticism, exploring how his work reflects various geological and semantic shifts in post-industrial Italy.
Andrea Zanzotto (1921-2011) stands as one of Italys most significant contemporary poets. Focusing on Zanzottos engagement with the Venetian landscape, it delves into his portrayal of the environment and human interactions with it, offering a nuanced interpretation of his ecopoetic oeuvre. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the study combines literary analysis with environmental humanities methodologies, providing insight into the broader cultural discourses surrounding environmental concerns.
