CALL FOR PAPERS
Members of the Comparative Literature Program (faculty, visiting scholars,
adjuncts, emeriti, researchers, post-docs, graduate students,
undergraduates) are invited to think about submitting manuscripts for
consideration in a future expanded edition of the book "Landscapes of the
Heart" -- one that would cross the boundaries of ecology, economics,
culture, the social sciences, health, law, philosophy and literature.
Individuals already involved include E.O. Wilson (Biology, Harvard; author
of "The Future of Life"; winner of two Pulitzers), Noam Chomsky (MIT),
Andrew Brook (Philosophy, Carleton), Michael M'Gonigle (Eco-Research Chair
of Environmental Law and Policy, University of Victoria), Stuart Walker
(Associate Dean Academic, Faculty of Environmental Design, University of
Calgary), Iain Taylor (until recently Chair of Botany, UBC), Maurice Strong
(Chair of both Earth Council and World Resources Intstitute; senior advisor
to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan), David Cash (Kennedy School of
Government, Harvard), Iain Robertson (Chair of Landscape Architecture,
University of Washington), Stephen Schneider (Biological Sciences,
Stanford), Lee Gass (Sculptor and Professor, UBC; winner of national 3M
Award as "Professor of the Year"), and Stephen Kellert (Forestry and
Environmental Studies, Yale). Background to the existing edition can be
found by clicking on the URL below. Guidelines for the new edition are
under development, and will be sent to interested persons later this
winter. Respond to <[log in to unmask]>

Students are VERY welcome in this interdisciplinary project, for they have
had experiences (and thus have a perspective) quite different from that of
previous generations of scholars.
If you feel doing so would be appropriate, please forward this message to
pertinent mailing lists.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Michael Aleksiuk, Ph.D.
