Eco-poetry in Elizabeth Bishop’s Selected Poems

Abstract

It is quiet astonishing to know the deep powerful influences of nature, environment and their creatures on human beings that help shaping and developing the poets mental and actual realization of life. This field of study is called Eco criticism which developed to be an important branch of literary criticism. This literary approach studies literary texts with reference to the interaction between the vast spectra of human activities and interests in flora, fauna, landscape, environment and weather. It is concerned with a special realm of communication with nature that cannot be realized easily without dedication and awareness.
