Call for Papers
The issues that the seminar addresses include: What is “the environment”? What is “environmental
literature”? What is its purpose? What is the role of “literature” in the human relationship with the
environment? The environmental literature has a long history as early as the
fifteenth century from all corners of the globe. It originated from slave spirituals,
sermons, captivity narratives, landscape art, plays poems, cartoons, science fiction,
bumper stickers, billboards, films, laws, architecture, and the University
curriculum itself. There are no geographical, temporal, linguistic, or genre
confines to what we could “read” as a “text” for its environmental themes. The
seminar serves as a forum for the literary scholars, environmental historians, environmental
philosophers and environmental writers and activists to deliberate their
voices.
