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.
