- March 1, 2023 – June 30, 2023
- Affiliation:
- PhD Student, University of Leeds
- Research Title:
- Investigating Ecological Aesthetics and the Embodied Mind in Contemporary World-Literature
Blaise’s research examines literature's role in capturing the social dimensions of sustainability and the lifeworld. This fellowship will allow her to make use of NIHU's inter-university network to consult resources at Nichibunken and Minpaku as well as at RIHN. Blaise will try to connect literary portrayals of place and personhood with the 'embodied materialism' of place-based, living knowledge systems, with special insight provided by RIHN's transdisciplinary approach to ecological knowledge.
