Episode #4, Poetic Nature(s): Literature and Politics at the Green Words/Green
Worlds Conference (Part 1)
CoHearence is a podcast series that explores the intersection of culture,
history and the environment. In part one of this two part episode, which focuses
on the 2011 conference "Green Words/Green Worlds: Environmental Literatures and
Politics in Canada," we explore the ways that Canadian ecocritics and poets are
engaging with the challenging environmental questions of our time through their
ecopolitical/poetic practice.
Featuring conference organizers Catriona Sandilands and Ella Soper as well as
keynote presenters Adam Dickinson, Anne Milne, and Molly Wallace, we’ll ask:
in a world increasingly characterized by climate change, environmental
disasters, and technology, why does literature matter? How is reading (and
writing) environmental literature political?
All CoHearence episodes are free and available at niche-canada.org/cohearence or
