Nature performed : environment, culture and performance / edited by Bronislaw Szerszynski, Wallace Heim and Claire Waterton - vi, 226 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm

Offering a wide-ranging, critical examination of the use and usefulness of ideas of performance for understanding human-nature relationships, this book gathers together a range of approaches to performance, nature and culture and subjects them to systematic critical discussion. As interest grows in ideas of "performance" amd "performativity" in the humainties and social sciences, these concepts can be extended and re-cast to inform human relations with nature. This book demonstrates how the many-dimensional prism of performance can generate new understandings of nature-human relations
