AN ECOCRITICAL READING OF LYDIA MILLET’S “ZOOGOING”

Öz

Throughout history the world faces many destructions and misdeeds of humankind with the anthropocentric perspective that tries to dominate nature. This approach poses a great threat to the world in that the extensive misuse of natural sources affects each part of life. The deforestation, nuclear threat and torturing of animals are the essential problems of modern world, and the cycle of the mother earth becomes disordered ecological disaster at the end. As regarding to these issues, there arose new theories of analyzing the environmental subjects as the central point, and it is called as Ecocriticism. Ecocriticism is a well-known movement which deals with ecocritical outlook to the literary texts in the opposition of anthropocentrism. This paper seeks to reveal how the story “Zoogoing” written by Lydia Millet brings ecocritical literacy towards the rights of animals, especially predators. It analyzes the story from the anthropocentric and eco-centric aspects. This story provides to understand the eco-conscious process within animals and human’s reactions. Thus, it is an interpretive ecocritical analysis of animals inside zoo and their instinctual behaviors towards the humankind. At that point, human behaviors and its perception towards animals construct a crucial analysis in Ecocriticism.
