Abstract

     This study examines an ecological issue in Linda Hogan's novel, Mean Spirit (1990). It focuses on what ecocriticism is and what it aims. Moreover, it centers on Linda Hogan, one of the prominent eco- novelists. It also centers on the cultural differences that greatly affected the Whites' vision and behavior towards the indigenous people and their environment as reflected in Linda Hogan's novel entitled Mean Spirit. It also discusses pollution of the Indian environment with oil and aspects of oppression which the indigenous people were exposed in the 1920s after discovering oil wells in their lands. It sheds light on the real roots of ecological and social oppression and indicates how to heal.
