Environmental Mobility History in the Making

Carson Fellow Gijs Mom describes his work on the automobile, which he sees as a vehicle for understanding how people in the early twentieth century both perceived and conquered nature. Mom relies on sources such as literature and films to determine how the car was driven and how driving changed the way that people experienced nature. Gijs Mom is a historian of technology, teaching and researching at Eindhoven University of Technology as Program Director for Mobility History.
