On Friday, February 26th, Jonathan Skinner, editor of ecopoetics,
will be on hand to speak about his work with the journal, one of the most
interesting and talked about in contemporary poetry practice. During
the past decade, he has published a really wide range of work which, taken
together, is probably best described as an investigation of what that term,
"ecopoetics" might mean. Past editions of the journal are available
behind the link. (The list of notable contributors is too long to mention.)
