Why Join
For almost twenty years, ASLE has enriched my life as a kind of professional home base; I look forward to each conference or new issue of ISLE as a reunion of old friends and a source of intellectual and creative inspiration. – Bernard Quetchenbach, Professor of English, Montana State University Billings
ASLE is the wellspring of inspiration, a global one. When I became a member of ASLE in 2005, I knew I had arrived at a thrilling ecocriticism-filled academic landscape. But ASLE has not only been an invaluable intellectual home for me, it is also a much valued platform for true collegiality and lasting friendships. I look forward to every ASLE conference, because I am fascinated by the cutting-edge work being done in environmental humanities by members and the spirit of warm friendship that always prevails at the conference. – Serpil Oppermann, Professor of English Language and Literature, Cappadocia University (Turkey)
ASLE has created a network of friends and colleagues from across the world; I have made connections with like-minded people who know how to balance their fierce intellects with the ability to have fun, who are driven by a desire to save the world while maintaining an ability to enjoy being in it, so going to the biennial conference feels a little bit like summer camp with the smart kids. – Suzanne Roberts, writer
Our association aims to inspire the creative and intellectual work of our diverse members and to build productive collaborations with colleagues around the world. We are an inclusive organization committed to environmental justice and ecological sustainability as well as environmental research, education, literature, art and service. Whether you are a longtime participant in or new to these fields, or simply curious about the environmental humanities and arts, ASLE invites you to become a member.
