Professor Balthrop-Lewis will discuss her book, Thoreau's Religion: Walden Woods, Social Justice, and the Politics of Asceticism (Cambridge, 2021), in which she explores how Thoreau's time in the woods was oriented not only toward contemplative ecstasy in nature but also toward just economy: for those enslaved in the South, for those who labored in the North, and for those whose lives he knew best in Concord. In doing so, Professor Balthrop-Lewis suggests we might reread Walden not as the individualist, naturalist bible as it has long been interpreted, but instead as a text invested in matters of justice for both humans and the ecological communities they live among. Please RSVP by scanning the barcode below, or by clicking this link. We hope to see you there!
