  4. Just had a wonderful, enriching conversation with another independent scholar in ecocriticism, and she mentioned that while she had looked for Canadian alt-ac or independent scholarly networks, she hadn't been able to find any.

    @academicchatter @academics @CouragePhD @academicsunite anyone have any leads on something like this? There's a lot of American Alt-ac I know, but how about Canadians? I know you're out there...

  18. Ep 2.9 is live! @arielkroon discusses the topic of ecocriticism with Dr Jenny Kerber, Associate Professor of English at Wilfrid Laurier University.

    What is #ecocriticism? Why is it important, especially for #environmental activists and solarpunks, as a narrative reframing device? Solarpunks work very closely with speculation and imagination and as architects of the narratives by which we live our lives, it helps to have tools like ecocriticism at our disposal.

    Join Ariel and Dr. Kerber to think through terms like “#wilderness” and “#nature” and “the #Anthropocene." How do we hold on to #hope, despite critical engagement with the dark side of our environmental #narratives ?
