ENG 2237 - ENVIRONMENTAL LITERATURE AND SUSTAINABILITY


ENG 2237 examines environmental literature from the last 150 years to explore the interaction of humans and nature with a focus on how the texts reveal different approaches to sustainability and to evolving ideas of what terms such as human, animal, nature, culture, and sustainability mean. Starting from the assumption that sustainability is a scientific as well as social issue, the class applies a variety of disciplinary and analytical thinking to the texts, broadens perspectives through class discussion, and hones critical thinking skills through writing assignments.

Credits: 3crs. General Education Requirement: Unity and Diversity of Humanity – Themes - Environmental, Economic, Social and Personal Sustainability
