Abstract: This article revolves around the possibility of implementing ecofeminism as a pedagogical device and perspective on teaching ecofeminist literature in the Tunisian departments of English. Ecofeminist courses maybe taught mainly after an English literature student has already become familiar with feminist, postcolonial and ecocritical theories. Such courses may be a synthesis review and an expansion of the literature due to the interdisciplinary quality of the theory of ecofeminism. Margaret Atwood’s Surfacing may be considered as the best exemplary novel that lands itself to an ecofeminist reading. Hence, students may dig into ecofeminist ethos through an analytical eye on it.

Keywords: ecofeminism, synthesis, interdisciplinary, Margaret Atwood’s Surfacing.
