The Little Ice Age
First coined in the 1930s, with reference to glaciation in North America, the concept of the “Little Ice Age” has undergone continuous revisions. It has traveled academically from glaciology to climatology, archeology, history, and, most recently, climate communication. Over time, it has grown into one of the most discussed topics in the field of climate history and attracts both considerable scholarly interest and public attention. The term “Lit…
Climate, peace, and conflict—past and present
Concern has risen that current global warming and more frequent extreme events such as droughts and floods will increase conflict around the world. This concern has spurred both social science research on contemporary climate, peace, and conflict as well as research in the historical sciences on past climate, weather, warfare, and violence. This perspectives article compares these two fields of scholarship and examines how each may benefit the ot…
Famines in medieval and early modern Europe—Connecting climate and society
The article evaluates recent scholarship on famines in Europe during the medieval and early modern periods ( c . 700–1800), synthesizing the state‐of‐the‐art knowledge and identifying both research gaps and interdisciplinary potentials. Particular focus is placed on how , and to what extent , climatic change and variability is given explanatory power in famine causation. Current research, supported by recent advances in palaeoclimatology, reveals…

Mitleid machen. Die Nutzung von Emotionen in der Hungersnot 1770-1772
This contribution analyses the evocation, framing and use of compassion in times of food shortages. It focuses on the European famine of 1770–1772 where different emotional regimes intersected. Established rituals of consolation met with new ways of dealing with sentiment and emotion. In the Holy Roman Empire, Patrioten and Menschenfreunde used the mobilisation of compassion to establish new forms of relief during the breakdown of local governanc…

Nature as myth, symbol and action
Opening Paragraph History is often presented as a unilineal process whereby events follow on from each other in a causal sequence: A gives rise to B which in turn leads to C. While this structural form is extremely compelling as explanation, it has limitations when applied to the colonial encounter. The differences between the beliefs and practices of the people involved in this encounter, and the consequent variety in perceived significances of …
Storage and Starvation
The development of the 'food security' concept in the 1990s marked a significant change away from state-centered strategies that focused on food availability, towards policies aimed at food access and strengthening individual 'entitlements' (A. Sen) to food. This essay applies the food security approach to early modern food regimes, drawing on the example of the state-granary system in 18th century Prussia to investigate their agents, zones of co…
