Description

Environment as a Weapon examines how warfare and nature have intersected from the Agricultural Revolution (10,000 BCE) to the present day through historical texts, geographical analysis, and literary works. The book traces environmental warfare across civilisations, from ancient epics like Gilgamesh and the Torah where conflict mirrors environmental catastrophe and plague, through medieval narratives such as the Tain and Beowulf where landscapes serve as both ally and adversary, to the steppe ecosystems that underpinned Genghis Khan's Pax Mongolica as documented in The Secret History of the Mongols. This Springer publication offers scholars and readers a comprehensive exploration of how natural environments have shaped military history and vice versa, revealing the deep connections between geography, literature, and human conflict across millennia.

Key Features

Explores environmental warfare across 12,000 years of human history from the Agricultural Revolution to modern times.

Combines historical records, geographical studies, and literary analysis to examine nature's role in military conflicts.

Analyses how ancient texts including Gilgamesh, the Torah, and Greco-Roman myths depict warfare alongside environmental disasters.

Examines medieval literature such as the Tain and Beowulf to show environments functioning as both military allies and enemies.

Chronicles the steppeland geography that enabled Genghis Khan's military expansion and Pax Mongolica empire building.

Published by Springer as part of the Historical Geography and Geosciences series for academic and scholarly readers.
