Despite repeated efforts to introduce environmental consciousness in the Humanities in Spain, there is still a significant gap between ecocriticism in Spain and Latin America. Latin American literature has always been tied to the historical ecological disasters which have taken place in America while it is surprising to see the few Spanish poets committed to the environment. In Latin America, there is a flowering of both poetry and criticism which analyzes the consequences of urbanization and industrialization of the landscape which contrasts with the neglect of Spanish poets for environmental issues.
Palabras claves: entorno, concienciación medioambiental, compromiso ecológico, desastre ecológico, Hispanoamérica
A pesar de repetidos intentos de introducir la concienciación por la conservación del mundo natural en las facultades de Letras en España, aun existe gran disparidad entre la ecocrítica en España y en Hispanoamérica. La literatura hispanoamericana ha estado desde siempre ligada al desastre ecológico histórico que ha tenido lugar en América mientras que sorprende el reducido número de poetas españoles comprometidos con el entorno y la conservación del medioambiente. En Hispanoamérica, sin embargo, florecen las producciones poéticas y críticas que analizan las consecuencias de la urbanización e industrialización del entorno al mismo ritmo que los poetas españoles muestran su despreocupación por los desastres ecológicos.
