American Environmental Writing: A Literary Tradition

Benjamin Goluboff, professor of English at Lake Forest College, speaks April 13th at 10:30 a.m. at the Ethical Humanist Society of Chicago, 7574 North Lincoln Avenue in Skokie. His topic is,  “American Environmental Writing: A Literary Tradition.”
Goluboff will discuss how modern writers on the outdoors such as Aldo
Leopold, Wallace Stegner, and Annie Dillard have found meaning in the
writings of their 19th Century predecessors Ralph Waldo Emerson and
Henry David Thoreau.
