Abstract
Through the lens of ecocriticism, this paper throws light on man and nature’s
continuum framed in stimulus-response mode. More importantly, it shows that though
they are of different species, man and nature may still have some strong bonds. In a
comparative study of Brink’s An Instant in the Wind and Cape of Storms: the First Life
of Adamastor: a Story ecocriticism helps to emphasize man’s green attitude towards
faunal species. Animals’ welcoming response to man’s ecocentric ways. Beyond this
stimulus-response paradigm, this insight aims to show that the protection of the
universe depends on the commonality between man and nature.
