Oecologies

Date: Friday, March 20 | 10:00 AM Pacific Time
Location: Zoom — join the mailing list for the link

Remember when you went to grad school hoping to just hang out and talk about literature with brilliant book nerds? Let’s do that this Friday.

Oecologies Co-director Joshua Calhoun has selected a couple top-secret, non-Faerie Queene poems from Edmund Spenser. All will be revealed at start-time on Friday, including links to the poems. (Insider tip: if you like to annotate poetry on paper, you’ve got a friend in Calhoun; he has suggested one might consider having a copy of Amoretti at hand.)

No advance prep. No pressure. Come as you are and as we are—a bit frazzled and over-scheduled—to think and chat with a group of mixed-rank medieval and early modern scholars who care deeply about the ways we record and read our ecological pasts, presents, and futures.

For Zoom meeting info, please join the mailing list here: https://groups.google.com/g/oecologies. We’ll send a day-before and an hour-before reminder to ensure all community members have access.
