Crowded waters: A pedagogical review of recent environmental humanities introductory texts

Abstract Recent years have featured a surge of introductory surveys of environmental humanities scholarship, seeking to assist instructors in familiarizing students with the field’s goals and parameters. Recognizing this abundance, this review essay examines some of the field’s newest contributions: J. Andrew Hubbell and John C. Ryan’s Introduction to the Environmental Humanities and Jeffery Jerome Cohen and Stephanie Foote’s co-edited The Cambridge Companion to Environmental Humanities. Additionally, it considers two supplementary texts that extend the formers’ initial considerations and their pedagogical implications: Sidney I. Dobrin’s Blue Ecocriticism and the Oceanic Imperative and Isabel Galleymore’s Teaching Environmental Writing: Ecocritical Pedagogy and Poetics.
