Thanks to the sponsors for their generosity in making the series possible, to my colleagues at Boise State University and the College of Idaho for the warmth of their welcome last week, and to everyone who came to hear my talk.

About susanoliver

I'm a Professor at the University of Essex, where I teach and write about literature from the 18th century to the present. My personal, teaching and research interests include environmental humanities, which is what this blog is about. I try to share the kinds of experience that are special to me, and hope they will interest readers. Writing is a way of thinking. The photos are mostly my own - please mention me and this site if you use them elsewhere. Thanks, and enjoy.
