Vieiros literarios do ecofeminismo en Galicia e Irlanda

Abstract

This section brings together a number of present-day women writers from Galicia and Ireland who reflect upon the ecofeminist dimension of their writing. In their contributions, they identify the main current debates on the relationship between women and nature in a medium, like literature, that is especially privileged not just to represent the world but to imagine and configure it in alternative forms that may be less destructive towards otherness. These women writers of fiction and poetry share an ecoregion, the Atlantic one, that faces similar challenges, although even from their sundry differences, these authors contribute reflections, which are of mutual relevance to both communities, about women and their bodies, women in rural communities, women and animality, anthropomorphisim, and climate change.
