This paper is to examine the perspective of Eco criticism in Amitav Ghosh’s famous novel “The Glass Palace”. Amitav Ghosh is a famous Indian writer and the winner of the 54th Jnanpith award. Eco criticism is the study of literature and the environment from an Inter disciplinary point of view, where literature scholars analyse text that illustrate environmental concerns and examine the various ways literature treats the subject of nature. “The Glass Palace” is a historical novel, which is set in Burma, Bengal, India. During the British invasion of 1885. This novel tells the story of a poor boy lifted on the tides of political and social chaos. The boy goes on to create an empire in the Burmese teak forest. This novel depicts how the British involvement in the South Asia has caused the environmental damages. So in this paper I focus on through the concept of eco criticism by dealing with the sensitive relationship of man and nature in the novel “The Glass Palace”.

Eco criticism, Colonialism, Relationship between human and non-human forms, and Environmental Degradation.
