“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

A New Book

My friends Alan and Tim, ranking superb Shelley scholars of the world, are about to publish another book, The Neglected Shelley, and it has an essay by me in it on Spinoza and Shelley....so so nice to revisit my PhD topic.

I just read a paper by Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos called Agency: Life and Law in the Anthropocene which cites to Hyperobjects. So cool to see my faves together in one article because APM is one of the absolute top interlocutors of animal studies and the law and writes virtuoso prose and OOO takes us beyond the spatial turn in animal and environmental studies.PBS, one might venture, did the same.
