Mapping Environmental Memory Through Literature: A Conversation with Emily Lethbridge and Steven Hartman

This chapter is an interview with two literary scholars, whose research in Icelandic and North Atlantic environmental history has led to the creation of new digital tools and interdisciplinary research networks. From the Icelandic sagas and place names, to new discoveries of medieval and early modern life writing, their distinct paths converge on the study of culture as both a repository and medium of environmental knowledge, communication, and cultural memory.
