Abstract "Feelings disclose the world to us and influence how we think, judge, and act. Feelings are also ecological: they emerge from within the broader rhetorical ecologies through which we move. The contributors to this volume grapple with a plurality of interrelated ecological feelings: care, concern, contempt, empathy, fear, grief, hope, joy, numbness, optimism, possessiveness, regret, and saudades. Informed by a rhetorical perspective, these essays not only reveal what sets our ecological feelings into motion but, crucially, they also uncover some of the rhetorical practices through which we might collectively feel our way into a more harmonious earthly coexistence"-- Provided by publisher.
