En cualquier caso la relación entre las mujeres y la naturaleza parecía estar lejos de ser una prioridad estratégica, o un campo teórico relevante en comparación con los temas urgentes sobre los derechos de la igualdad de oportunidades, aborto y divorcio que el feminismo en España aún debía trans- formar. En el ámbito de cuestiones sociales discutidas en términos de roles de género a los que se dedicaban los profesores e investigadores en literatu- ra, cultura, filosofía, sociología y política comprometida, las representaciones ambientales de género parecían menos urgentes que las discusiones recien- temente desarrolladas de dimensiones de géneros aplicadas a las expresiones culturales de clase, raza y postcolonialismo. En realidad este también fue el caso de la primera recepción del término ecoféminisme dentro del feminismo francés. A principios de los años setenta Françoise d’Eaubonne, quien acuñó el término, escribió una serie de libros, empezando con Le Féminisme ou la mort (1974), que reflexionaba sobre los debates dentro del movimiento femi- nista Front Reformiste el cual dio paso a la adopción de un manifiesto ecoló- gico en 1973, que pronto sería retirado a favor de otras prioridades sociales1. 1.

Feminismo/s 22, diciembre 2013, pp. 9-12 10 Lorraine Kerslake y Terry Gifford Ahora que la crisis ambiental global ha sido reconocida más ampliamen- te, cualquier discusión, o intento de abordarla, será contraproducente a me- nos que haya una conciencia de los antiguos supuestos patriarcales y las es- tructuras que lo produjeron. El hecho de que hace poco más de veinte años aparecieran, casi a la vez y con algunos de los mismos autores, dos libros colaborativos pioneros en California, nos recuerda el reciente desarrollo de este análisis: Healing the Wounds: The Promise of Ecofeminism, editado por Ju- dith Plant (Santa Cruz: New Society Publishers, 1989) y Reweaving the World: The Emergence of Ecofeminism, editado por Irene Diamond y Gloria Orenstein (San Francisco: Sierra Club Books, 1990). Emergence (‘Emergencia’) y Promise (‘promesa’) ahora han dado paso a los modos sofisticados de análisis y debate llevados a cabo

  • 47 Strategies for a Cross-Cultural Ecofeminist Literary Criticism Greta
    Author: Gaard, Greta Title: Strategies for a Cross-Cultural Ecofeminist Literary Criticism Strategies for a Cross-Cultural Ecofeminist Literary Criticism Greta Gaard University of Wisconsin-River Falls Interdisciplinarity, multiculturalism, internationalism—according to Cheryll Glotfelty, these are crucial areas for ecocriticism’s continued development. Drawing on fifty years of interdisciplinary work in Women’s Studies, ecofeminist literary critics with a history of work in multiculturalism would seem well poised to offer bridging strategies toward an international ecocriticism. Are there insights we can draw from the analyses of multicultural feminisms within the United States to guide the development of ecofeminist literary criticisms cross-culturally? What features of this ecocriticism will need to change? For if both feminism and ecocriticism are grounded in specific material, cultural, and economic relations to place and history, then ecofeminist literary criticism cannot be expected to remain the same from one set of eco-social relations to the next. Like much of ecocriticism, ecofeminist literary criticism is grounded in activism, and committed to using literary criticism as a strategy for ecodefense. In the west, ecofeminism is an environmental theory and practice that developed in the 1980s through antinuclear peace protests at Greenham Common in England, as well as at Seneca Falls and at the Vol. 1 Vol. Women’s Pentagon Actions; it has roots in feminist vegetarianism through Feminists for Animal Rights, antiracist feminism through the Woman Earth Feminist Peace Institute, No. 1 feminist earth-based spiritualities and feminist political engagements as well as through the international Green movement. After nearly two decades of activist and theorized engagements, ecofeminist literary criticism took root in U.S., Australian, and European ecocriticism, reaching ecocritics in Japan, China, and Taiwan in the past decade.

Queer Ecologies: Sex, Nature, Politics, Desire. Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 2010. GRETA GAARD Drawing on a range of queer and ecological theories rather a single ortho- dox perspective, the thirteen essays in Queer Ecologies develop a strong argument for queering environmentalisms and greening queer theory, in three steps: challenging the heteronormativity of investigations into the ‘sexuality’ of nature, exploring the intersections between queer and ecological inflections of bio/politics (including spatial politics), and ulti- mately queering environmental affect, ethics, and desire. Clearly, notions of sexuality have shaped social constructions of nature, as seen in the familiar concepts and creation of wilderness, national and urban parks, and car camping. As the first book-length volume to establish the inter- sections of queer theory and environmentalisms at such depth, Queer Ecologies covers a broad range of topics—gay cruising in the parks, les- bian rural retreats, transgressive sexual behaviors among diverse species, literary and cultural narratives of queer/nature. It also establishes topics for future development, i.e., exploring the intersection of speciesism and heterosexism in queer ecologies, and developing a focus on the constitu- tion of the non-white queer subject.

  • Speaker Biographies Dr. Anthony Fauci, NIAID Director
    Speaker Biographies Dr. Anthony Fauci, NIAID Director Dr. Fauci was appointed director of NIAID in 1984. He oversees an extensive portfolio of basic and applied research to prevent, diagnose, and treat established infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, respiratory infections, diarrheal diseases, tuberculosis and malaria as well as emerging diseases such as Ebola and Zika. NIAID also supports research on transplantation and immune-related illnesses, including autoimmune disorders, asthma and allergies. The NIAID budget for fiscal year 2020 is an estimated $5.9 billion. Dr. Fauci has advised six presidents on HIV/AIDS and many other domestic and global health issues. He was one of the principal architects of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), a program that has saved millions of lives throughout the developing world. Dr. Fauci also is the longtime chief of the Laboratory of Immunoregulation. He has made many contributions to basic and clinical research on the pathogenesis and treatment of immune- mediated and infectious diseases. He helped pioneer the field of human immunoregulation by making important basic scientific observations that underpin the current understanding of the regulation of the human immune response. In addition, Dr. Fauci is widely recognized for delineating the precise ways that immunosuppressive agents modulate the human immune response. He developed effective therapies for formerly fatal inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases such as polyarteritis nodosa, granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly Wegener's granulomatosis), and lymphomatoid granulomatosis. A 1985 Stanford University Arthritis Center Survey of the American Rheumatism Association membership ranked Dr. Fauci’s work on the treatment of polyarteritis nodosa and granulomatosis with polyangiitis among the most important advances in patient management in rheumatology over the previous 20 years.

  • Ecofemminismo E Questione Animale: Una Introduzione E Una Rassegna
    Ecofemminismo e questione animale: una introduzione e una rassegna a cura di Annalisa Zabonati La “questione animale” ha accompagnato la riflessione femminista fin dai suoi esordi. Le appassionate campagne antivivisezioniste di Anna B. Kingsford, Frances Power Cobbe, Lizzy Lind af Hageby nell’Inghilterra vittoriana, hanno infiammato – attraverso opuscoli, volantini, immagini proiettate dalle lanterne magiche – ampi strati dell’opinione pubblica. A queste autrici, poco note o dimenticate, sarà dedicata una piccola antologia in uno dei prossimi numeri della rivista. In questa introduzione mi limito a tracciarne brevemente i profili. Anna B. Kingsford si laureò in medicina nel 1880, rifiutandosi di praticare la vivisezione, con una tesi sull’alimentazione vegetariana e per tutta la vita si dedicò alla denuncia dello sfruttamento degli animali. Instancabile antivivisezionista, convinta suffragista, affermò: “Flesh-eating and vivisection are in principle closely related, and both are defended by their advocates on common premises, of which the catch-cries are Utility and the Law of Nature”1. Frances Power Cobbe, scrittrice e riformatrice sociale di origine irlandese, femminista e lesbica, fondò nel 1875 la National Anti-Vivisection Society, e nel 1898 la British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection, entrambe tutt’ora attive. In uno dei suoi numerosi pamphlet contro la vivisezione, scrisse: The vindication of the rights of the weak, it is not too much, I think, to insist that the practice of vivisection, in which this tyranny of strength culminates, is a retrograde step in the progress of our race; a backwater in the onward flowing stream of justice and mercy, no less portentous than deplorable2. Lizzy Lind af Hageby, femminista e animalista di origine svedese, cofondatrice dell’Animal Defense and Anti-Vivisection Society, si infiltrò durante le lezioni di 1 A.

  • Conference Program
    Association for the Study of Literature and Environment Thirteenth Biennial Conference June, 2019 Dear ASLE Conference Participants: On behalf of UC Davis, it’s my pleasure to welcome you to the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment’s Thirteenth Biennial Conference. It’s an honor to open our campus to you as a resource. We’re proud of the breadth, depth and excellence of our scholarship and research in environmental sciences. UC Davis serves as a model of environmental sustainability, not only to our students, but also to industry and the public at large. The innovations coming out of our Institute of Transportation Studies have shaped the direction of clean-fuel policies and technologies in California and the nation. Our West Village housing community is the largest planned “zero net energy” community in the nation. In addition, our sustainable practices on campus earned UC Davis the “greenest-in-the-U.S.” ranking in the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings. We’re working hard to make UC Davis a completely zero-carbon campus by 2025. All of these things speak to our long-standing commitment to sustainability. This conference provides a forum for networking opportunities and crucial discussions to inform and invigorate our commitment to practices that are both environmentally sustainable and socially just. There’s never been a better time to engage our broader communities in conversations about these topics. I want to thank our UC Davis faculty, students and partners for hosting this important conference for scholars, educators and writers in environmental humanities. Enjoy the conference and take time to explore our beautiful campus.
