Connolly House, Boston College, Chestnut Hill, MA
Boston College will be holding its annual conference, Comhfhios on 8 February 2025. This year’s theme is ‘Hibernia Beyond Humans; The Rise of Environmental Humanities in Irish Studies’. This conference welcomes presentations that investigate interactions and relationships between human actors, nonhuman actors, and the environments across Ireland and her diasporas. Environments, both natural and constructed, are in part defined by the conditions in which someone or something operates; under the anthropocene, flora and both human and nonhuman fauna exist in and contribute to environments that inform our research today.
