The annual VERGE conference is coming up in Canada, BC in October—sponsored by Trinity Western University/School of the Arts, Media and Culture—a good place for poets to be as well as artists. This year’s theme is arts and the environment. Here’s a link to the conference schedule and my abstract/presentation (A Strain of the Earth’s Sweet Being: Gerard Manley Hopkins and Vincent van Gogh in Conversation) and others.
If any of you have good books to recommend on ecopoetry I’d appreciate—I’m developing a bibliography. Join us if you’re in the area.
