This course takes a big-picture approach to investigating how humans in diverse cultures have related to the non-human world, placing an emphasis on landscapes and plant and animal species. Comparing our Western worldviews and practices with Indigenous approaches, we will identify the underlying assumptions with which humans and their technologies have encountered, modified, and impacted the natural world. Designed with an experiential component, the course invites us to rethink our philosophies and sustainability of the human/non-human interface.
