Drawing on perspectives from the environmental humanities, health humanities, cultural studies, literary studies, media studies, and history, this lecture series examines the materiality of air. It analyzes air through the lenses of representation, crisis, and well-being. Studying literature and culture, ecology and society, the lectures consider the complex relationships between humans, more-than-humans, and the environment more broadly. The lecture series also highlights future directions in engaging with the medium of air. One lecture will be delivered each week. Each lecture will be given by an invited expert, and will last for 45 minutes, followed by an enriching 45-minute question-and-answer session.
