- Abstract
Literature can be defined as a reflection of society. Society is a dynamic entity like Literature. The influence of Literature in Modern society is indisputable. Each piece constitutes some form of expression. A Gulf News article asserts, “In an era of Modern media, such as television and movies, people are misled into thinking that every question or problem has its quick corrections or solutions. However, Literature confirms the real complexity of human conflict.” In the Post Colonial Era, a lot of pieces of Literature in the English Language are predominant. Environmental concern is a much talked about topic in the contemporary era in World Literature. Various dimensions of the same have been explored by many literary geniuses, which are suitable for further interrogation in connection with the Sustainable Development Goals. The main objective of this paper is to closely look at the essence of Eco-criticism in Literature to promote Sustainable Development.
