Description
The sixth and final installment of this series on posthumanism and Buddhism. After a year of thought-provoking presentations and rich conversation, the speakers come together for a round-table conversation. What common threads did you hear? How did these research presentations and discussions impact your thinking about the anthropocene and climate change? What do Buddhist studies researchers say about the place of humans in multispecies environments?
Series organized by Rory Lindsay, Assistant Professor, and Frances Garrett, Associate Professor of Buddhist Studies in the Department for the Study of Religion at the University of Toronto.
