1970年春天,我和大学的注册员一起参加了“环境史”的学习。一方面,我认为我是在回应要求对环境负责的呼声,这种呼声在那年的头几个月达到了高潮。我也很高兴能帮助大学,特别是历史系,更好地应对社会问题。我,终于,“有意义了。此外,我以前在美国思想史方面的工作,特别是导致荒野和美国心灵的研究,使我熟悉了美国人与环境之间互动的广泛模式。
Environmental History" with the registrar of my university in the spring of 1970. For one thing I thought I was responding to the cries for environmental responsibility which reached a crescendo in the first months of that year. I also felt good about helping make the university, and particularly the Department of History, more responsive to the problems of society. I was, at last, "relevant." Moreover, my previous work in American intellectual history, especially the research that led to Wilderness and the American Mind, had familiarized me with the broad pattern of interaction between Americans and their environment.
