This ecocriticism course is an elective course within the BASS program. It is designed with the idea that exploration of the stories of a particular locale culminates in a deeper understanding of the inter-connectivity of issues related to any place, and all places. Story teaches us of the lives of others; the lives of other humans, as well as the lives of plants, pastures, plateaus, cliffs, canyons, and other entire ecosystems. This place-based inquiry, centered on Colorado, explores the depictions and relations of local literature to environment, economy, and social equity. This course will have writing and research components. Students will contribute knowledge and insights gained from previous program studies while engaging in discussions and critiques of the literature.
