- Nota de Resumen
- Since the early 1980s, environmental history has been widely recognized within the mainstream of academic history. The work of the pioneering generation of environmental historians—including William Cronon, Alfred Crosby, Carolyn Merchant, William McNeill, Stephen Pyne, Susan Schrepfer, Richard White, and Donald Worster—has strongly influenced the way academic history is practiced. While environmental history owes its visibility and sense of purpose in part to environmentalism, the field’s intellectual roots date back to the nineteenth century, particularly to the work of scholars such as George Perkins Marsh and Frederick Jackson Turner. This book explores the methodology of environmental history, with an emphasis on the field’s interaction with other historiographies such as consumerism, borderlands, and gender. It examines the problem of environmental context, specifically the problem and perception of environmental determinism, by focusing on climate, disease, fauna, and regional environments. It also considers the changing understanding of scientific knowledge—a problem that current environmental historians must address in their effort to integrate their field with other approaches. The final chapters analyze environmental history’s relationship with economic change and the history of the nation-state.
