The portrayal of nature in works of fantasy is coloured by the corresponding context. This book shows how the natural world has been depicted within this genre, comparing the British tradition with Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea cycle. Because of her specific context, Le Guin’s works deviate from the received tradition in significant ways.
