Abstract

This study attempts to discuss the portrayal of nature and find the poet’s view towards nature in Walt Whitman’s “A Song of the Rolling Earth”. Because the writer relates the portrayal of nature with the environmental issue, ecocriticism literary theory is the most appropriate theory to analyze the poem. In analyzing the poem, the writer uses three steps of ecocriticism suggested by Cherryl Glotfelty: defining how the portrayal of nature within the works is, how the text or images deliver the issue in different ways, and how the ideology is constructed in the text. “A Song of the Rolling Earth” provides the ideology of sustainable development which becomes the finding of the study.
