Integrating aspects of Chinese culture with modern theories of language, this book puts forward a new approach to ecolinguistics: harmonious discourse analysis (HDA).
Critiquing the kinds of eco-critical discourse analysis currently used, HDA aims to diversify the landscape of ecolinguistic studies by promoting cultural inclusiveness and ecological education. As well as enabling readers to be open to alternative approaches and discourses in the analysis of a variety of Chinese-context-based examples, it also helps readers understand the tradition and development of ecological ideas in China, before further expanding the sphere to examine East-West dialogues of ecolinguistics. Divided into two parts, the book first introduces the theory of HDA before moving on to an investigation of its application. This includes the analysis of nature poems and media discourses, an exploration of China's ecological development, a consideration of ecological education, and examples of the ecological wisdom and practices of ethnic minorities in China.
