Boston, Tolkien, and The Future: Professor Michael Rawson

  • Resumen

  • You know what, not only did Carter do nothing for this episode, his presence was harmful. A house divided cannot stand and he refuses to reach across the aisle.  He's also being like really annoying when it comes to tomatoes. Refuses to eat them. Like just grow up already.

    Professor Michael Rawson is a historian of environmental, urban, and cultural history and is particularly interested in how ideas about nature have shaped environmental change. He studied with William Cronon while earning his PhD at University of Wisconsin-Madison. Before coming to Brooklyn College in 2007, he taught at the University of Wisconsin and Stanford University. Rawson is the author of Eden on the Charles: The Making of Boston, which was a finalist for the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for History, and The Nature of Tomorrow: A History of the Environmental Future. He is also a member of the faculty at the CUNY Graduate Center. He is currently working on a large-scale, narrative history of Boston.
