EN2132 Environmental Lit: Encountering Natural World


Reading and writing about our relationship with the natural world are at the core of this hands-on course. Students engage in close observation of natural communities, and use these experiences as a source for creative non-fiction and journal-based writing. Much of the contemporary environmental literature analyzed and discussed in this course focuses on how human ecology is intertwined with other natural systems, what wild places mean to us, how we can rebuild sustainable lifestyles and communities, and why our biophilic ties are critical to our well being.
