This highly interdisciplinary book studies historical famines as an
interface of nature and culture. It will bring together researchers
from the natural and social sciences as well as the humanities.
With reference to recent interdisciplinary concepts (disaster
studies, vulnerability studies, environmental history) it will
examine, how the dominant opposition of natural and cultural
factors can be overcome. Such an integrated approach includes the
"archives of nature" as well as "archives of man". It challenges
deterministic models of human-environment interaction and replaces
them with a dynamic, historicising approach. As a result it
provides a fresh perspective on the entanglement of climate and
culture in past societies.
