Dr. Deborah Janson from the Department of Foreign Languages at West Virginia University will discuss works by German author Christa Wolf and compare them with central tenets of American eco-feminism. Wolf's writings often portrayed a socialist vision for a future society that was based on cooperation, community, and recognition of the intrinsic value of each individual. Dr. Janson will discuss how such a vision corresponds closely to the eco-feminist concept of a partnership- based society that advances communication and mutual respect, emphasizes relationships rather than hierarchies, embraces life?s connecting spirit and more. This event is part of Belmont University's Eighth Annual Humanities Symposium, which this year is centered on the concept Nature and the Human Spirit.

This event will be held in the Massey Board Room.
