There is a rich tradition of theoretical work, at the core of the western humanities, connecting as key concepts nature, society, and change. This course will introduce students to the western tradition, emphasizing this set of core concepts. In this course, the dramatic twentieth century emergence of environmental concerns was both built on and developed from this ongoing concern about nature. There is a copy of each book on Reserve at the Mansfield library. Extensive use will be made of the Internet for readings on current issues and analysis.
Web access is available in most computer labs on campus.
