“…They can live a peaceful life in their own world without human intrusion. It has depicted for us "a partnership-based society that advances communication and mutual respect, pursues the development of life-sustaining rather than life-destroying technologies, and emphasizing relationship rather than hierarchies, linking rather than ranking" [4]. Emerson has said in Nature "everything that has life gives sign of satisfaction, and the cattle that lies on the ground seems to have great and tranquil thoughts."…”

Emily Dickinson was a prominent American poet, whose poems could be divided into about nature, love, death, and religion. It is worth noting that the poems about nature occupy a rather part in number, over one third of all. In the context of ecological deterioration today, it is great significance realistically to reread Dickinson's nature poetry from a new angle, the perspective of eco-criticism, which not many people did before. Through the close reading of Dickinson's nature poems, the thesis attempts to explore the ecological consciousness hidden in Dickinson's natural poetry, which embodies in the harmony between nature and man, such as living poetically in harmonious nature, all the living in nature are equal and awe for nature. The aim of this thesis is to shed light on the appropriate attitude toward nature and toward themselves which human beings should take and inspire people's ecological consciousness to protect our degrading environment and keep our spirit innocent when facing the serious ecological crisis in nature as well as in spirit.

This paper explores Suheir Hammad's collection of poetry, Born Palestinian, Born Black from the perspective of ecofeminism. The discussion is focused on investigating the representations of Hammad's double consciousness of Palestinianness and blackness and displaying the dual domination of women and nature embedded in the society of the homeland she left behind. The poems reveal that she depicts the two-ness of her consciousness by highlighting the psycho-social tensions she experiences in the two social contexts-the homeland and the current society of exile. Further, the anthology exhibits the sense of alignment between Palestinianness and blackness in her eyes that is manifested through a form of poetic kinship. They provide an understanding into her varied experience that transcends the limits of cultures and gives birth to a new ecofeminist perspective that promotes diversity. By explicating these crossroads imaged in her poetry, we hope to provide some insights into Hammad's endeavors that complement those of recent ecofeminists, thereby setting up a common ground for building a symbiotic and ecofeministic society in which there is no male oppression or human exploitation.
