Green Narratives, Ecology and Sustainability in Contemporary Television - Exploring Narrative Ecosystems

This volume examines the intricate relationship between television narratives and ecological challenges, offering a variety of theoretical perspectives, methodologies, and case studies. By analyzing multiple genres—including scripted dramas, documentaries, animation, and unscripted formats—the contributors demonstrate how television can both illuminate and obscure environmental themes while acting as a cultural force capable of shaping public perceptions and inspiring collective action. The central premise of the volume is that serial narratives, due to their adaptability and resilience, are uniquely positioned to integrate, reframe, or even marginalize pressing environmental concerns.
