Caroline Levine is the David and Kathleen Ryan Professor of the Humanities at Cornell University. She has written four books, the most recent of which is titled The Activist Humanist: Form and Method in the Climate Crisis. It grows out of the theoretical work in her earlier book Forms: Whole, Rhythm, Hierarchy, Network, which won the James Russell Lowell Prize from the MLA and was named one of Flavorwire’s “10 Must-Read Academic Books of 2015.” She is currently the nineteenth-century editor for the Norton Anthology of World Literature and spends much of her free time engaged in climate activism, including the drive to divest the Cornell endowment (successful in 2020).
