Prerequisites: ENG 121 and ENG 122 , and SUS 300 or SUS 301 with a grade of C- or higher. SUS 300 or SUS 301 must be taken concurrently with this course if neither has been previously completed with a grade of C- or better.
Interdisciplinary in nature, this course examines landmark texts that have shaped and are shaping sustainability thought and action. Texts are interpreted rhetorically within their historical, cultural, and political contexts in order to highlight their effects on policy, on conceptions of human relationships with the environment, and on social equity/justice. Texts are drawn from multiple genres that may include fiction, poetry, journalism, policy, nonfiction, scientific communication, public discourse, blogs, multimedia works, and film. Students analyze how and why particular texts have been/are highly influential within the growing body of sustainability thought. Voices emanating from diverse cultures globally are included.
