Department: English & Philosophy

Course: ENGL 2420

Title: Literature of the Outdoors

Description: ENGL 2420 is a survey of literature addressing the experiences of people and their relationship with the natural (more-than-human) environment. How non-human nature is understood, used, and represented in human cultures—as material resource, spiritual and aesthetic inspiration, scientific laboratory, site for recreation, etc.—in many ways defines these cultures and individuals. This course is designed to help students become more aware of the complexities of our relationship with the outdoors by surveying a variety of literatures that deal with these themes.
