Abstract
Since times immemorial literature and environment had a very close link which in recent times has been termed as ecocriticism. But if one looks back at the ancient holy texts and early nature writing we will find that our forefathers very well aware of the significance to preserve the ecology of the world. Both in the east and the west, and all the religions across the globe have shown sensitivity to the environment. The nexus between the ecology and literature thus has a strong foothold which has manifested itself in myriad forms in the present epoch which is grappling with ecological crisis .The present study is an attempt to study this nexus which can help in changing this world from anthropocentric to ecocentric one.
