I am so excited to present our special issue on "Trans Natures" in medieval literature: scholarworks.wmich.edu/med_ecocriti...

The intro is free to read. Thanks to the journal’s flexible policies, some authors have also posted their articles on their personal sites…. #MedievalSky #EnvHum #EcoCrit

If you'll be at Kzoo on Thurs, please consider coming to our panel on "Premodern Digital Ecologies." Of special interest for digital medievalists, archaeologists, and – coincidentally – scholars of Ireland. tinyurl.com/yvp4nwuh
