Description

Combined with variable meeting hours) Nature is a key concept in geography, yet is notoriously difficult to define and has different meanings over time, place, and culture. This course introduces students to studies and concepts of nature utilized in environmental geography. Course units survey the history of geographical concepts of nature; debates and themes in the study of human-environment relationships; alternative ways of knowing culture; and new frontiers of geographic environmental thought.
