HPS: Environmental history in HPS. Helen Macdonald What is it? In its broadest sense, Environmental History is history focusing on the interactions that humans have – and have had – with nature; it has been described as history that takes 'nature' as a fundamental category of historical analysis. It has precursors in landscape history, in historical geography, and in the Annales school of history, but it has developed into a vigorous and engaged interdisciplinary field – particularly in America – and it offers an unusual opportunity for synthesis across historical subfields and across disciplines such as ecology, geography, science studies, anthropology and so on.
