ResumoThe nature-human relationship has been a debating topic in contemporary research, as the relationship with nature differs from man to woman.Also, the nature-human bond evolves or devolves over time.Thus, a tiny change in human behaviour causes catastrophic changes in nature.The research paper differentiates the responsibilities, desires and capabilities of humans over nature, through Amruta Patil and Devdutt Pattanaik's Aranyaka: Book of the Forest, a graphic novel.Actor-Network Theory (ANT) is applied to link and differentiate gender-based interactions with nature.Overall, the analysis picturises the bond between nature and humans aside from tiny gender distinctions.This entanglement shows the relevance of graphic novels illustrating and teaching the importance of nature-human interaction to both adults and children alike.
