Philosophy · Boston College
The seminar will discuss key readings in the contemporary philosophy of nature as it relates to ecological questions of earth, climate, elemental imagination and interspecies belonging. The readings will run from the seminal writings of Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty and Bachelard to a new generation of eco-philosophers including David Abram, Edward Casey, Erazim Kohak, Catherine Keller and Brian Treanor. The seminar will involve lectures, close readings, class discussions and a final paper.
