Abstract:
The approach adopted in this thesis is essentially chronological. The first chapter aims to provide a fairly superficial survey of the development of European perceptions of the environment in the early phases of mercantilist expansion, before much in the way of colonial settlement was undertaken. It highlights the connections between expansion and changes in perception with regard to the symbolic importance of islands, botanic gardens and early state responses to timber shortage. It also draws attention to the importance of medical perceptions of the extra-European environment. In the second

Abstract:
One of the greatest contemporary poets, Douglas Livingstone, was a South African by adoption. He used to define himself as a “white African”. In his poems he explored nature (and the South African landscape in particular) and its relationship with mankind, revealing a strong ecological sensibility and environmental concern. This dissertation argues that Livingstone’s main preoccupation is, as both a scientist and a poet, to heal the Earth and, as a result, he can be considered one of the first ecopoets of the twentieth century.

Abstract:
This study explores the relationship between fascism, fascist ideas, and environmental consciousness in Britain during the pre- and post-World War II decades. In examining this topic, two main questions arise. First, why did fascist intellectuals support environmentally conscious ideas, and how did they relate these positions to their political ideologies? Second, why were many environmentally conscious thinkers during this period attracted to fascism? This thesis will also address several related issues regarding fascism and environmental consciousness. These issues include what role environm
