- Abstract
The world is getting more and more techno-equipped with sophisticated modern innovations and improvised adaptations. But when it comes to liberty and equality of genders and the way we treat ecology there have been many issues for concern. The term ecofeminism has existed even before the word was used by French writer Francoise d'Eaubonne in her book, Le Feminisme ou la Mort (1974). But it is said that it has come to India in the 1970s. It is an umbrella term, the theory of ecofeminism borrowed from feminism and environmentalism. In this research paper the researcher emphases more on the connections between women and nature, how environmental ethics were bound with women, mainly in Bendre's poetry, and also in Kannada writings. This research paper which is also going to discuss the green reading of Kannada writes Bendre and his Mother earth philosophy in Kannada literary context.
