Dr. T. Vasanthakumari, P. S. Poornima

Abstract


John Steinbeck’s major works are based on the human condition and their determination to survive.  Steinbeck's attraction toward nature was so natural that he lived in close communion with nature even as a schoolboy. His characters depict his compassion for fellow beings. His humanitarian attitude was very evident in his writings. This paper analyses ecohumanism in John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men.
