Organisation for Studies in Literature and Environment-India (OSLE-India)
is a forum for promoting ecocriticism, especially in India and also in other Asian countries. Today ‘ecocriticism’ has come to mean not only ‘the application of ecology and ecological principles to the study of literature,’ but also the theoretical approach to the interrelational web of natural, cultural and supernatural phenomena.
OSLE-India seeks to collaborate with
Centre for Plants, People and Ecosystems (CPPE) Chennai, a forum which has
expertise in several fields including, ecology, taxonomy, biodiversity,
forestry, botany, conservation, environmental economics and sociology.
Two types of annual membership are available: student (Rs.150), and employee (Rs.300). For membership, please contact:
