Abstract
Environmental Humanities is the product of the 21st century, an age in which it is no longer possible to grasp and manage environmental problems from a single viewpoint. This is why traditional humanities subjects such as philosophy, aesthetics, literary and religious studies, history, and linguistics have combined the natural and social sciences and the arts into an interdisciplinary formation to understand contemporary environmental issues. The book in the Reader’s hands is intended to become part of the body of literature – introductions, chrestomathies – about Environmental Humanities, adapted to the Hungarian context. Due to its nature, it provides a comprehensive description of a topic, such as environmental philosophy, environmental anthropology, nature art, nature conservation, the relationship between religion and ecology, environmental history, legal, political, and economic issues, social justice, overpopulation, or food dilemmas. In addition, the volume shows the community responses to contemporary ecological and social problems with examples from Hungary.
