Earth, Sea, Sky: An Environmental Humanities Research Network
Oe is excited to be participating in a multi-year, international project that will host three linked symposia that focus sequentially on the domains of “Earth, Sea, and Sky.” In three linked symposia, the project will focus on each domain of “Earth, Sea, Sky.” It commenced at Oxford on “Earth,” the most anthropocentric, localized, and thereby familiar of the domains. It considered how premodern texts configure this element in proximity to various vantage points: local, regional, and national as well as theological, cultural, human, non/human, and creaturely.
The Pulter Project
Oecologies is delighted to spread the word about the Pulter Project. A beautiful and inventive online edition of the 17th c Hester Pulter’s works has launched. Its many contributors include Oecologies’s past member, Professor Fran Dolan, who has collaborated with UC Davis PhD alumna, Samantha Snively, and others.
