Romanticism and Environmentalism : The Tasmanian Novels of Marie Bjelke-Petersen
2001
single work
criticism
— Appears in: Australian Literary Studies , May vol. 20 no. 1 2001; (p. 62-75) Examines romanticism and early environmentalism in Bjelke-Petersen's almost forgotten novels about the Tasmanian landscape. Haynes argues that although in one sense Bjelke-Petersen's "Romantic emphasis on possessing, and being possessed by, Nature can be seen as a form of emotional imperialism, her Tasmanian novels provided an important reassessment and a widely publicised step towards the acceptance of wilderness conservation in the state" (74). -
