“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Feminist Ecology Essay
That's what's on my plate today. I'm revising it as per the editors' wishes (I hope!). “Treating Objects like Women: Feminist Ontology and the Question of Essence.”
I'm arguing that ecofeminism is not well served by relationism all the way down.
This sounds very interesting Tim, who is the article for? I'd thought of something similar myself, but I'm glad someone is writing it. You seem to be in a frenzy of productivity at the moment.

Kudos for the Big Lebowski nod.

Hi Paul, it's for a volume called Feminist Ecocriticism: A Critical Reader, edited by Serpil Opperman, Greta Gaard, and Simon Estok.
