fP: Communicating Seasons: Texts, Cultures & Climates

The 1,5 day workshop aims to bring together app. 25 people working with seasonality and communicaion from within the environmental humanites, environmental communication, climate science, journalism research and practice, literary studies, art history and other fields to help foster discussions about the changing cultural, political and scientific significance of seasons. This will, we hope, stimulate new ways of thinking and communicating about climate change. Based on such dialogues, we aim to work towards an anthology entitled Communicating Seasons. There is in no participation fee.
