Historically speaking, Zelden writes, lower federal judges "are generally non well known, the importance of their piece of work is not self-axiomatic, their papers are often scattered or fragmentary or thin, and the wider context in which they operate is not wellestablished."

Ecoplay: The Rhetorics of Games nigh Nature

Melissa Bianchi

Mediating Nature considers how technology acts as a mediating device in the structure and circulation of images that inform how nosotros see and know nature. Scholarship in environmental communication has focused almost exclusively on exact rather than visual rhetoric, and this book engages ecocritical and ecocompositional research to shift focus onto the making of images.

Contributors to this dynamic collection focus their efforts on the intersections of digital media and ecology/ecological thinking. Part of the book's larger argument is that assay of mediations of nature must develop more critical tools of analysis toward the very mediating technologies that produce such media. That is, to truly understand mediations of nature, one needs to sympathize the creation and production of those mediations, right down to the algorithms, circuit boards, and ability sources that drive mediating technologies.

Ultimately, Mediating Nature contends that ecological literacy and environmental politics are inseparable from digital literacies and visual rhetorics. The book will be of interest to scholars and students working in the fields of Ecocriticism, Ecocomposition, Media Environmental, Visual Rehtoric, and Digital Literacy Studies.
