Ecocriticism and Environmental Humanities on MLA Commons 11 years agoHere’s the syllabus I put together for a graduate and postdoctoral seminar I’m currently teaching at the Folger Shakespeare Library. Given the setting, it is quite primary source heavy! But I tried to integrate contemporary ecotheory with the medieval and early modern texts.
