This study traces how this shift is reflected and shaped through storytelling, using a theoretical framework the author introduces-eco-conviviality- a way of living and working with the land, marked not only by labour and necessity, but by joy, attentiveness, and ethical relation. The author explores the ways aesthetic form mediate multispecies relationships and agricultural ethics focusing on contemporary literature and film from Northern Europe-Scandinavia, Iceland, Germany, and the UK-that engage with and reimagine cultivation beyond extraction and efficiency, as a practice grounded in care and reciprocity.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSophie Wennerscheid \u003c\/b\u003eis professor of Nordic literature in the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics at University of Copenhagen.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 July 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798216438540\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55552980713612,"sku":"9798216438540","price":108.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9798216438540","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
