Environmental Stress and Resilience in Antiquity: Climate, Hazards, Biodiversity, and Epidemics

Abstract

Open-access book providing a compact, research-informed introduction to environmental stress and resilience in antiquity. It synthesizes interdisciplinary evidence and methods across four domains—climate, natural hazards, biodiversity decline, and epidemics—emphasizing uncertainty, scale, and causal complexity. The volume highlights how environmental pressures were mediated by institutions, infrastructures, and social inequalities, offering conceptual and methodological orientation for students and researchers. It was prepared in the context of teaching and academic activities related to an Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) (Grant No. 2025-1-SK01-KA131-HED-000312923-1).
