This book examines literary representations of birds from across the world in an

ecosystems and bioregions. It considers a wide range of authors, including some
of the most celebrated figures in eighteenth-century literature such as John Gay,
Henry Fielding, Laurence Sterne, Anna Letitia Barbauld, William Cowper, Mary
Wollstonecraft, Thomas Bewick, Charlotte Smith, William Wordsworth, and
