The D.R.A.G.E.N. Lab grows out of the Herstmonceux Project, and is, therefore, particularly concerned with how historical weather and natural environment affected everyday life at the end of the Middle Ages.
The Lab supports a network of undergraduate and (post)graduate students: historians, archivists, language and literature specialists, and environmentalists. Together, we seek to understand the past as we use modern approaches to illuminate current issues.
