The eighteenth century can be seen as a turning point in the description and interpretation of extreme events – and not just due to the Lisbon earthquake. This volume examines the discursive and cultural consequences of extreme winters, some of which were the harshest of the millennium. What form does the interplay between nature and culture take in literary and artistic sources?
