Dear colleagues,
This email is both a reminder of the upcoming LARCA Environmental Humanities seminar on ‘Auto-ethnographic reflections on ecological grief,’ also the first online pre-panel for the international conference on Ecological Grief in the Literature and the Arts in the Anglophone World (3-4 April 2025, Université Paris Cité, LARCA & Institut Catholique de Paris); and an important notice: we will be using a new Teams link for this session. Check our website.
We will have the great pleasure to listen to the following papers (abstracts below):
• ‘Exploring somatic solastalgia through auto-ethnographic photo-walks in Santiniketan, India’ with Aadita CHAUDHURY (York University, Toronto)
• ‘The world is ending and we’re all going to die: autoethnographic reflections on anticipatory grief and planetary awareness’ with Jodie JARVIS (Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka/University of Otago, Aotearoa)
We are aware that the time for this first meeting may be slightly unusual depending on where you are in the world, but do look forward to seeing some of you for this exciting session: this will be 2pm Toronto (Canada) time, 7pm London (UK) time, 8 pm Paris (France) time on Thursday 28 and 8 am Wellington (New Zealand) time on Friday 29.
