This module allows you to grapple with our various conceptualisations of nature with a view to understanding environments? pasts, presents, and futures. It will teach you to place primary and critical sources across disciplines into conversation. It will feature a range of texts, art, and media in order to encourage comparison between these forms and genres for their potential to represent environmental issues. You will examine the historical, ideological underpinnings of such ideas as `pastoral?, `enclosure? and `anthropocene?, and analyse textual representations. Alongside these texts, there will be discussion of key environmental and ecocritical concepts, week by week. You will learn how to draw on perspectives across fields of study and to critically engage with interdisciplinary sources.
