“From Dust They Came: Human Erosion and the Problem of Sanitation in New Deal California,” Jonathan H. Ebel, Professor of Religion, University of Illinois, Oct 5, 14:15-15:30, NT hus møterom 718

We are very happy to announce that environmental historian Libby Robin has joined the Oslo School of Environmental Humanities as a visiting scholar! While she is here, she will participate at the workshop on Antarctica and Rights of Nature as a commentator, and hold the inaugural lecture for the Anthropogenic SOILS project.

The notion of care is a buzzword in environmental humanities, and probably for a good reason. It is not very present, however, in historical reflection. In this talk, historian of culture Ada Arendt discusses what early modern agencies and relationships of care tell us about more than human entanglements of the early Anthropocene.
