초록

This paper aims at revaluing the current code of ecology in O Pioneers!, as one way of responding to a common holistic hope for re-connection between humans and nature. Willa Cather’s ecological imagination in this fiction is drawn to Nebraska’s land founded on mediating the relationship between nature and humans. This text tracks the movement from the wilderness to the natural settlement, and bares the earth to the natural culture. Nebraska evolves towards the fruitfulness of life where Alexander feels the joyous germination in the land. Alexander, faced with a landscape which escapes the marshaling control of human effort, adopts a remarkably coexistent attitude towards the land. She is desirable ecologist, becoming the natural human. Although she brings the culture to the wilderness, she is insistently identified with the natural human. The land, the place, would seem poised to resume its place as a vital natural human concept. Accordingly Nebraska is related with ecologically based interdisciplinary connection with life, bridging the gulf between nature and humans, living in an increasingly interconnected worlds.

Abstract

This paper aims at revaluing the current code of ecology in O Pioneers!, as one way of responding to a common holistic hope for re-connection between humans and nature. Willa Cather’s ecological imagination in this fiction is drawn to Nebraska’s land founded on mediating the relationship between nature and humans. This text tracks the movement from the wilderness to the natural settlement, and bares the earth to the natural culture. Nebraska evolves towards the fruitfulness of life where Alexander feels the joyous germination in the land. Alexander, faced with a landscape which escapes the marshaling control of human effort, adopts a remarkably coexistent attitude towards the land. She is desirable ecologist, becoming the natural human. Although she brings the culture to the wilderness, she is insistently identified with the natural human. The land, the place, would seem poised to resume its place as a vital natural human concept. Accordingly Nebraska is related with ecologically based interdisciplinary connection with life, bridging the gulf between nature and humans, living in an increasingly interconnected worlds.
