Abstract

This essay situates Henry James’s Italian Hours within recent conversations about Anthropocene ecotourism. Although ecotourism aspires to educate its participants, scholars have struggled to define and assess the education it occasions. This article opens by offering Henry James’s reflections on reading John Ruskin in Italy to make an environmental humanities contribution to that scholarship. Thereafter, the article considers the Anthropocene ecotourism context in the other direction, drawing from “Siena Early and Late” to develop emergent work in econarratology.
