In this paper, I argue that the predominantly dystopian outlook of the past century or so marked a move away from former views on human progress. Rather than commenting on humanity’s inability to build a better society, current dystopianism betrays the view that the human species as such is an impediment to harmonious life on Earth. I discuss the shift from utopia to dystopia (and back) as a result of regarding humans as a force that does more harm than good, and I consider the possibility of human extinction within the framework of dystopian and utopian visions. The final section of the chapter turns to Margaret Atwood’s MaddAddam trilogy as a fictional example that plays out the prospect of a world in which humans have all but become extinct.

  • HOT FLASH Press
    HOT FLASH AN ANIMATED SHORT FILM BY THEA HOLLATZ produced by WILDLING PICTURES TINMAN CREATIVE STUDIOS ACE NAISMITH is having a hot flash, and she is about to go live on local television. HOT FLASH is a journey into the funny, uncomfortable and sometimes maddening world of an aging professional woman navigating a culture that puts great emphasis on physical appearance. country of production | CANADA language | ENGLISH (no subtitles) runtime | 10 MINUTES format | 2K, COLOUR, 16:9 exhibition formats | DCP, BLU-RAY, DIGITAL FILE publicity contact | KRISTY NEVILLE, Wildling Pictures, [email protected], 647.405.6102 DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT One day, I was thinking a lot about the ineffectiveness of oscillating fans — they don’t really cut it in times of desperate heat. This sparked the idea for a protagonist in the throes of menopause, trapped indoors during a snowstorm. Playing off the breakneck pace at which news anchors pivot from mournful to cheerful in a single report, Hot Flash stars Ace, a weather woman, experiencing the futility of trying to cool off while enduring a parade of irritating circumstances. Menopause receives far less consideration than the more marketable bodily transformations, such as the deeply glamorous puberty. I wrote Hot Flash in appreciation of those people who are being phased out to make way for, or spiced up to contend with a younger model. Hot Flash examines the humour in how women of a certain age quietly endure the isolating and surely demoralizing process, and suggests perhaps the profound toll of aging as a woman can only be countered by resisting the compulsion to give a fuck.

  • Theoretical Contribution
    EvoS Journal: CURRICULUM ARTICLE The Journal of the Evolutionary Studies Consortium The Alien Ecosystem Project: An Integrative and Creative Assignment for Biology Classes Randall Hayes* Department of Biology, North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University ABSTRACT Nonmajors biology courses are often taught as less detailed versions of the majors courses. There is often a heavy emphasis on memorizing structures and pathways. This approach can result in low engagement of more creative thinkers. In three community college courses I included a two-week capstone project in which students built the biosphere of an Earthlike alien planet. Students first created alien species to fill specific niches, documenting them through life histories and drawings. Then, working in groups, they hierarchically nested their aliens into food webs and linked ecosystems. In the final iteration of the project, they also grouped their species into evolutionary lineages based on the similarity of their drawings. Students were thus able to directly demonstrate their understanding of key concepts of biology without relying on technical jargon. KEYWORDS Astrobiology, Formative Assessment, Inquiry-Based Learning, Biology Education, STEAM INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND This article concerns an effort to reform undergraduate nonmajors biology education. It illustrates the difficulties inherent in such a project -- which involve all of the participants, at all levels of organization --and possible ways of circumventing some of those difficulties. Students can be motivated partially by grades, but they learn better and more easily when they are engaged by an authentic problem. Several pedagogical approaches are based on this idea: problem-based learning (PBL) and process- oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) are only two of the many acronyms that represent a similar constructivist teaching philosophy.

  • 1 Doing Ecocriticism with Shakespeare: an Introduction 1
    Notes 1 Doing Ecocriticism with Shakespeare: An Introduction 1. Since 1998, when the first published instance where the words “Shakespeare” and “ecocriticism” appeared together (see Estok, “Environmental Implications,” Shakespeare Review 33, p.135, n.39), the field of “Shakespeare and ecocriticism” has become flooded with scholar- ship. To date, there have been two books published that apply ecocriti- cism to Shakespeare: Robert Watson’s Back to Nature: The Green and the Real in the Late Renaissance and Gabriel Egan’s Green Shakespeare: From Ecopolitics to Ecocriticism. Articles (now too many to number) and spe- cial issues (notably, the “Shakespeare and ecocriticism” special cluster of ISLE in the summer of 2005) have been increasingly appearing. Palgrave Macmillan published a collection entitled Early Modern Ecostudies: From the Florentine Codex to Shakespeare (Ed. Ivo Kamps, Thomas Hallock, and Karen Raber) in December 2008, and there is another collection forthcoming through Ashgate entitled Ecocritical Shakespeare (Ed. Lynne Bruckner and Dan Brayton) in 2011, as well as a full monograph by Todd Borlik entitled Ecocriticism and Early Modern English Literature set to come out through Routledge as this book goes to press. There have been several conference panel sessions over the past several years: the 2008 Shakespeare Association of America (SAA) held a session entitled “Shakespeare and Ecological Crisis” and a seminar in 2006 on “Nature and Environment in Early Modern English Drama.” The 2006 World Shakespeare Congress (WSC) held a panel session organized by Simon Estok entitled “Ecocriticism and the World of Shakespeare,” while the 2011 WSC has one organized by Vin Nardizzi and Jennifer Munroe entitled “Plants and Gender in Early Modern Literature.” The British Shakespeare Association held a “Shakespeare and Ecology” seminar organized by Gabriel Egan and Kevin de Ornellas at the 2005 Biennial Conference, and the 2001 Ohio Shakespeare Conference entitled “The Nature of Shakespeare” sponsored several ecocritical sessions.
