What is geocriticism?

Geocriticism is an interdisciplinary approach to literary and cultural studies that seeks to understand the relationship between place, space, and literature. It examines how literary texts represent and interact with physical and cultural environments such as landscapes, regions, cities, and borders, and how these environments shape the literary texts themselves. Geocriticism also explores how literature participates in the creation and negotiation of cultural identities, as well as in the production and contestation of power relations within different spatial contexts.
