Abstract
This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of Scopus-indexed publications on ecocriticism and literature from 2005 to 2025. Using the Bibliometrix package (Biblioshiny) in RStudio, we analysed 1,108 documents to track the field’s growth, trace its intellectual structure, and detect its key trends. Our findings show an annual growth rate of 19.15%, with the Anthropocene and climate fiction (cli-fi) emerging as priority topics. Strategic maps helped us classify the field’s driving themes and emerging directions. Overall, the results show that ecocriticism has moved past classical literary analysis toward an interdisciplinary ecological paradigm. We hope this analysis results in a useful conceptual guide for future research.
