Eco-colonial Australian literature and the shaping of Australia’s environmental consciousness

这个项目的目的是考虑如何殖民澳大利亚文学写作塑造澳大利亚的环境意识。它将探讨殖民地澳大利亚文学如何表达生态问题：土地清理，物种分类，栖息地，灭绝，气候变化和环境灾害的影响的问题。通过研究澳大利亚殖民时期的文学作品，自然历史学家的作品和关于资源管理的争论，这个项目希望揭示我们的文学过去，并为澳大利亚当前的环境问题增加历史深度。

This project aims to consider how colonial Australian literary writing shaped Australia's environmental consciousness. It will explore how colonial Australian literature expressed ecological issues: questions of land clearance, species classification, habitat, extinction, climate change and the effect of environmental disasters. By examining colonial Australian literary writing, natural historians’ works and debates about the management of resources, this project expects to reveal our literary past and add historical depth to current environmental concerns in Australia.
