This course introduces students to an exploration of sustainability from interdisciplinary environmental humanities perspectives. Students will apply, analyze, and evaluate knowledge from various humanities disciplines, including environmental ethics, ecocriticism, environmental psychology, and gender studies, covering various cultural contexts and geographic regions, past and present, to better understand sustainability and today's social, environmental, and economic problems and solutions to those problems. Students will examine how various worldviews, narratives, and understandings of humans inform both unsustainable and sustainable behaviors, from individual to community levels.
