Title of the paper : A Succinct Journey into the Evolution of Ecocritical Theories

Abstract: Environmental concerns have been the subject of literature for a long time in all regions of the world. Ecocriticism is a way of criticism distinctly among literary and cultural theories which studies the relationship between the human and the non-human in all over the earth reflecting human history in terms which connote greater mythological and cultural meanings. Ecology focusses on the importance of Nature. Ecocriticism portrays the connection of how everything on earth is connected to everything else. It portrays the habitat, the house i.e., the environment in which all beings live. Its study elaborates into the entire environment, the surroundings, landscape etc. in existence on the surface of the earth. Ecological movements have time to time achieved significance and brought into fore the attention of intellectuals, writers and scientists to the climate changes and destruction caused in Nature and the environment.
