| Landscapes is the second in our new series of environmental
history readers, suitable for students and researchers. Comprising
essays selected from our journals, Environment and History and
Environmental Values, each inexpensive paperback volume
addresses an important theme in environmental history,
combining underlying theory and specific case-studies.
Landscapes explores the conceptualisation of environments as
landscape, philosophically and historically. Excursions in
landscape aesthetics contextualise case studies of landscapes
perceived, constructed and responded to, from the plantations of
South Africa to the Australian outback, the medieval Ardennes to
nuclear-age America. Literary and artistic versions of landscape
are studied alongside those driven by policy and pragmatism,
probing the intersections of the transcendent and the ideological. |
