Abstract
This article argues that junior researchers in literary criticism should learn to interpret literary texts in ecocritical approach as they do with the rest of the literary devices of age. Strategies to carry out the interpretation exercises are suggested for the learner to find a guide along his path towards reaching the meaning that the story conveys. Ecocritical approach reaches results that are not different from a tool of speech for the defense of the environment. The whole work aims to make it clear to the researcher about the ecocritical reading techniques applicable to both poesy and prose that fit the nature-reading paradigm.
Author Keywords: Ecocritical reading techniques, Literary text interpretation.
