Writing the more-than-human world
$290
In this multi-part, generative class, students will read essays and reportage about nature and non-human animals. The possibilities of this genre have expanded in recent years with writers approaching the non-human world from a distance, as well as a recent trend in incorporating our human selves into the narrative of animal experiences. We will discuss the purpose and goals of environmental writing, reading from writers like Sabrina Imbler, Ed Yong, J. Drew Lanham, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, and others. The latter part of the class will be devoted to generative exercises.
