Review # 1 was written on 2017-10-11 00:00:00 Jist Benn Examples of sci-fi: Rachel Carson, Silent Spring (1962) "Chemical pollution is a centra issue for American environmentalism, at the same time it functions as a crucial tripe to explore the porous boundaries between body and environment." (p 60) The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy "This sudden confrontation with a spatial, political, and economic context of previously unsuspected vastness also provides an apt metaphor for a cultural moment in which an entire planet becomes graspable as ones own local backyard." (p 3)

Review # 2 was written on 2019-02-21 00:00:00 Tung Nguyen Thorough argument for a broader view of issues of place in eco-critical thought - calling for more nuanced understandings of deterritorialized cosmopolitanism and risk perception theories. Written in 2008 so already a little dated re: technology, and all examples are film and literature, so transposition to visual arts is left to the reader (if they happen to be studying art history, for example.)
