Nikki Roulo is interested in the intellectual history of the environment, early modern literature and archives of the environment and sustainability, and environmental humanities. She studies how depictions of nature and our interventions with it shape our evolving understanding of the environment and our responsibilities towards it. Her current research traces the history of sustainability and looks at how early modern depictions of nature intervening in human lives reorder political, judicial and cultural systems.
