Keywords Ecocriticism; five waves of ecocriticism; literature and nature; interconnectedness; hyperobject; transcorporeality; dualism; environmental justice
Description The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive view of ecocriticism, utilizing the metaphor of waves to depict its development and reflect on changes in its key concepts, milestones and methodological approaches. This relatively young, interdisciplinary discipline enhances literary research by seeking to understand the complex relationship between literature, nature and the environment. It transforms ways of reading literary texts by setting them in environmental contexts, addressing their ecological dimension, which it places in various perspectives by exploring and subverting dualism.
