CHM T213 | 8/8 | 3.00 | This course offers an in-depth exploration of the relation of literature to the natural world from the late colonial era to the present. We will read Henry D. Thoreau and trace his influence among later writers such as John Muir, Mary Austin, Aldo Leopold, Edward Abbey, and Annie Dillard. Students will keep a journal of their own experiences in the natural world. Two quizzes but no exams. |
