Course Catalog Description
This course centers the body as a key analytic to understanding the more-than-human world. The sick, injured, and disabled body is a central and reoccurring theme within environmental scholarship, as is its opposite, the healthy, robust, and fit body. In this class we will explore the sociopolitical and ethical relationships between altered bodily capacity, vulnerability, dependency, and systems of violence to nature and people, while attending to the sometimes troubling ways conversations around ecological health and fitness are informed by social inequality
