Résumé 0

This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in this book. The book discusses the way environmental issues can be apprehended through new epistemologies and new forms of investigation. It covers environmental humanities research specifically about 'nature', identifying various and cross-disciplinary forms of knowledge production and transfer. The book adopts a resolutely combined mode of analysis between philosophy, literature, cultural studies and social sciences, interested in the production, transfer and circulation of knowledge about 'nature' across disciplines and across national and cultural spaces. It reflects ongoing controversies and dialogue between scientists from diverse disciplinary backgrounds and locations, who are all concerned with the environmental humanities. The book then considers them together in a debate for the first time to overcome national boundaries about 'nature' as a research and a practical field in order to find a different way to conduct environmental studies.
