Descrizione The Routledge Handbook to Identity and the Environment in the Classical and Medieval Worlds
The Routledge Handbook of Identity and the Environment in the Classical and Medieval Worlds explores the various ways in which environment was considered as a defining characteristic of ethnicity and identity in the Greek and Roman rational, scientific, and pseudo-scientific discourses. Defining 'environment' broadly to include not only physical but cultural environments, natural and constructed, the volume's contributions on a diverse range of topics address the ways in which environment was understood to shape culture and physical characteristics of peoples as well as the ways in which the ancients manipulated their environments to achieve a desired identity.
