Focusing on the postmodernist braiding of various, indigenous, and ecofeminist ontologies, close readings of the animistic and totemic dimensions of the stories at hand lead to the theorizing of liminal realism—a mode that shares much with magical realism but that is approached through an ecopoetic lens, specifically working an interspecies kind of magic, situating readers in-between human and other-than-human worlds. This book promotes a worldview based on relationships of reciprocity and symbiosis. It restores our capacity for wonder together with our sensitive intelligence. Liminal realism adopts a stance in-between scientific, mythical, and poetic worldviews as it calls attention to the soundscapes, odorscapes, feelscapes, and landscapes of the world. This monograph offers an original, transdisciplinary, and cross-Atlantic take on ecopoetics as it straddles the two academic worlds and sparks a conversation between artworks, theories, and studies emerging from the English-speaking world as well as from Francophone contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart One: From Disenchantment to an Ecopoetics of Reenchantment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter One: Disenchanted, Enchanted, and Reenchanted Worldviews\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Two: Toward an Ecofeminist, Ecopoetic Project of a Rational Reenchantment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Three: An Ecofeminist Remystification of Narrative: The Many Faces of Gaia in the Anthrop-o(bs)cene\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Four: Sowing the Seeds of an Ecopoet(h)ics of Wonder and Enchantment: Reincorporating Language and the Human into the Flesh and Song of the World\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart Two: Ecopoetic Reenchantment via Liminal Realism\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Five: Why Liminal, Rather than “Magical,” “Spiritual,” “Mystical,” “Ontological,” or “Epistemological” Realism?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Six: Postcolonial Liminality and (Re)initiation into a Multispecies World: Moving betwixt and between Human and Other-than-Human Realms in Linda Hogan’s Power and Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Seven: Post-Pastoral, Non-Indigenous Thought-Experiments with Totemic and Animistic Liminality\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Eight: Liminal Realism and Interspecies Thought-Experiments in Contemporary Fiction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart Three: Writing and Dwelling Ecopoetically\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Nine: Ecopoets and the Art of Anamorphosis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Ten: Postmodern Shamanism: Making Headway Toward Other-than-Human Perspectives\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Eleven: Reweaving Word to World: Ecopoets as Instruments of the Sympoietic Song of the Earth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Twelve: Restor(y)ing and Rewor(l)ding: Writing in a Grounded Middle Voice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Thirteen: Translating the Song of the Earth: Reen-chanting Earthly Harmonies\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042006368599,"sku":"9781666910421","price":86.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781666910421.jpg?v=1750952589","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/ecopoetics-of-reenchantment-liminal-realism-and-poetic-echoes-of-the-earth-9781666910421","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
