  • EV 275: Nature & Society

    1.00 Credits
    Colorado College

    The course examines the interaction between Europeans and the natural world from the Renaissance to the present. It looks at how nature shaped the ways Europeans lived and worked and how, in turn, they thought about and behaved toward nature. In particular, it explores the impact of the Scientific Revolution, industrialization, and mass culture on the changing interplay between nature, society, and culture. Counts as one unit of social science credit. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
