Paper long abstract:

NEMUS, the Network for the Environment in Medieval Usages & Societies, is a digital platform for scholars of medieval environmental studies to engage, discuss, and pursue collaboration. Its expanding core of researchers works on Portuguese topics with a strong international outlook. The Network's main contribution is to address the gaps (often too wide) between distinct, yet overlapping, scientific disciplines concerning the medieval environment. It aims to

facilitate the development of interdisciplinarity, the gestation of new ideas, and, so we hope, enhanced collaboration across the so-called 'hard' and 'soft' sciences.
