The research seeks to explore the representation of nature in fables, from an ecolinguistic perspective, taking Further Fables for Our Time as an example. The aims of the research are: 1) to explore the language patterns which are used to depict nature, e.g., the repetition of certain lexis; 2) to investigate the tendencies and attitudes found in these fables toward nature through examining whether they encourage respect and care for the ecosystems, or encourage ecological destruction; 3) to provide an ecolinguistic example by tracing the animals' relationships, how they treat the elements of nature, and how these relationships mirror human social relations and attitude towards nature. The research draws on ecolinguistics as a new perspective of looking at language, adopts one type of ecosophies categorized by Stibbe (2015), i.e. frames, relying on this theory in the analysis: Lakoff's frame theory. Besides, the researcher uses corpus linguistics as a tool to achieve the objectives of the thesis, depending on LancBox version 4.0. The data is comprised of 47 fables written by James Thurber collected from the internet in pdf form. The analysis shows the possibility of studying fables from an ecolinguistic perspective. As well, the conclusion elucidates that the interactions between animals, to a large extent, resemble human social relations and manner of exploiting nature.
