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...

This essay collection, ed. by Kelly I. Aliano & Adam Crowley analyses a great variety of #videogames through an #EnvironmentalHumanities / #Ecocriticism lens. How do games shape environment(s) & our perception of it outside of the game?

Green with envy 🌵, because our collection now houses this new 2025 "Cambridge Handbook of Literature & Plants"? No reason! Order the book, ed. by Bonnie Lander Johnson today from our library and explore the essays on #LiteraryStudies & #Ecocriticism & #EnvironmentalHumanities & #CulturalStudies

There was a time when humanity spoke to the Earth as if it were alive — rivers taught us, forests were temples, the sky a page of infinite metaphors. Then our gaze shifted. We stopped writing poems about Nature and started writing reports.

“Nature: Poetry or Report?” traces this shift — where Romantic poetry meets environmental data. It argues our intellectual pollution preceded ecological pollution.
