The volume ‘Nature as Historical Experience’ explores, from an interdisciplinary perspective, how nature has been historically experienced, conceptualized, perceived, and shaped as an integral part of human life – and how it continously affects human perception, thought, experience, systems of order, and historicity.
The contributions offer philosophical, historical, and anthropological approaches to nature and its relation to history – for instance, as a sphere of resonance, a precondition of historical experience, an object of scientific appropriation, a culturally shaped order, a managed resource, or a bodily experienced phenomenon of illness and meaning. With contributions by Hartmut Rosa, Philippe Descola, Bruno Latour, and others, the volume brings together theoretically and historically grounded perspectives on a significant subject in contemporary ecological, social, and ontological debates.
