- This was the first scholarly monograph to offer a sustained ecocriticial analysis of both avant-garde and mainstream UK and Irish contemporary poetry. It re-evaluated the whole body of existing scholarship about the relationship between poetry and ecology, locating this against broader emergent trends in the environmental humanities. The book also conducted detailed examinations of the entire career outputs of three major poets, each with a substantial body of work. This required extensive work over an extended period of time on primary sources (especially handwritten drafts, notebooks and correspondence) held in archives in the USA and the UK and unavailable digitally.
