RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Beyond Gary Snyder: Buddhism's influence on U.S. environmental literature A1 Gaard, Greta K1 budismo K1 feminismo ecologista K1 ecocrítica feminista K1 literatura medioambiental AB Although Gary Snyder’s poetry and prose has been internationally celebrated as examples of Buddhism’s influence on U.S. environmental literature, other writers have taken Buddhist ideas in directions somewhat different from Snyder’s. This essay explores the influence of Buddhism on feminist environmental writers such as Joanna Macy, Stephanie Kaza, Barbara Gates, Jeanne DuPrau, Melody Chavis, Ruth Ozeki, bell hooks, and Alice Walker. In their ecological creative nonfiction, novels, and environmental essays, these women writers addresssocial justice themes of race, class, gender, sexuality, and ecology in ways that go beyond Gary Snyder’s deep ecological vision, offering an ecological feminist dimension to socially-engaged Buddhist literature in the United States PB Universidad de La Laguna.
