“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

Wayne Leys Memorial Lecture

I'll be giving it at Southern Illinois University by invitation of the Philosophy Department on November 4 or 5 (date tbc):

“Ecological Ethics after the End of the World”

(That should just about cover it!)

Ah, my alma mater. They should be a very friendly and receptive crowd. In case you didn't already look it up, they have a number of process metaphysicians and one scholar who's also doing an ecological philosophy, Thomas Alexander, although of a process-friendly sort.
