Angebote / Angebote:

The Companion to Global Environmental History orients readers to this dynamic and fast-growing field and provides an essential reference to current issues and controversies within the research arena. Bringing together environmental historians from around the world, it surveys past developments in scholarship, current contours of the field, and possible approaches for the future. Four themed sections encompass temporal, geographic and thematic approaches from prehistory to the present day, to offer multiple points of entry into the substance and historiography of environmental history. Chapters explore themes across times, places and processes, as well as exploring environmental thought and action around the world, to give readers a cultural, intellectual and political context for engagement with the environment in modern times. The companion is a road map, not only for scholars and students who are coming to environmental history for the first time, but also for professional historians and specialists looking for comparative perspectives.
