Interdisciplinary studies involve combining methods and approaches from different disciplines to gain a more comprehensive understanding of a subject. This approach can provide new insights by looking at a topic from multiple perspectives.
For example, an interdisciplinary study of ancient Rome might combine historical analysis with archaeological evidence, literary criticism, and art history to create a fuller picture of Roman life and culture.
Environmental history is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interactions between humans and the natural world, often drawing on history, ecology, geography, and anthropology.
