59th Annual Comparative World Literature Conference: Ecocriticism and Popular Culture
Image
This conference will explore the relationship between pop culture and the environment. We welcome pessimistic and optimistic interpretations of the topic: thinking ecologically can open up possibilities of true social change, but ecocritical readings of texts may also reveal precisely how much change is needed. Given the prevalence of popular culture in our current cultural environment, this is a encompassing topic, and we encourage cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches.
