Religious Ecologies, Engaged Ethnography, and the Activist Imagination

Religious Ecologies, Engaged Ethnography, and the Activist Imagination

The Ancestral Time project is pleased to feature Sarah McFarland Taylor, Associate Professor of Religion in the Department of Religious Studies at Northwestern University (Chicago, IL) and author of the award-winning book Green Sisters: A Spiritual Ecology (Harvard Univ. Press, 2007) for a lunchtime lecture:

“Earth Has Hope: What Religious Ecologies, Engaged Ethnography, and the Activist Imagination Can Tell Us About Remaking Our World.”

In this lecture, Taylor will share out of her own research expertise over the past decade which has combined ethnographic study of ecological activists and religious communities along with critical inquiry into concepts of the natural environment, popular culture, media, and women’s experience.

There will be time for Q&A with our speaker after the lecture which will be followed by a catered lunch. We expect that this lecture will be especially engaging for researchers in the environmental humanities, social anthropology, religious studies, human geography, politics, and social sciences.

So that we may be sure to order enough lunch, please register yourself for a free ticket here: https://eventbrite.co.uk/event/17336420701
