Abstract
The article discusses the conception of nature in Faroese and Nordic children's and young adult literature. Considering the claim that ecocritical literature has taken its permanent place in the literary landscape, reflecting a new identity, that permeates what children and young people read, the article examines how environmental problems, climate change, environmental activism, and the relationship between nature and culture are addressed in a selection of Faroese and Nordic children's and young adult literature.
