What relationship did the people of the Middle Ages have with nature? This work based on a solid foundation of archaeological facts, shows that, far from the cliché of being frozen in time and the victim of natural catastrophes, the Middle Ages was a time rich in ideas which traversed the centuries and the developments of that time.
In his discussion of the thousand years of the mediaeval era, the author pays particular attention to the time when cathedrals were built and to the first appearance of environmental preoccupations.
The work focuses on three major themes: the way, during the Middle Ages, that men thought of their place in nature; the exploitation of nature and its legal aspects; and the question of a possible mediaeval environmental crisis and the emergence of the first environmental laws.
