There is a growing recognition of the importance of transgender perspectives about the environment. Unlike more established approaches in the environmental humanities and queer studies, transecology is a nascent inquiry whose significance and scope are only just being articulated. Drawing upon the fields of gender studies and ecological studies, contributors to this volume engage major concepts widely used in both fields as they explore the role of identity, exclusion, connection, intimacy, and emplacement to understand our relationship to nature and environment. The theorists and ideas examined across multiple chapters include Stacy Alaimos notion of "trans-corporeality" as a "contact zone" between humans and the environment, Timothy Mortons concept of "mesh" to explore the interconnectedness of all beings, Susan Strykers notion of trans identity as "ontologically inescapable," Catriona Mortimer-Sandilands and Bruce Ericksons history of the development of queer rural spaces, Judith Butlers analysis of gender as "performative"with those who are not "properly gendered" being seen as "abjects"and Julia Seranos contrasting rejection of gender as performance. Transecology: Transgender Perspectives on Environment and Nature will be of great interest to scholars, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates in transgender studies, gender studies, ecocriticism, and environmental humanities.
