Landscape:

Politics and Perspectives
Voorkant

2 Recensies
Berg, 1993 - 351 pagina's
The term 'landscape' was coined in an emergent capitalist world to evoke a particular set of elite experiences - a particular 'way of seeing'. But other people also have landscapes. The authors of this book are Geographers, Anthropologists and Archaeologists, and they explore landscape as something subjective, something experienced, something that alters through time and space, that is created by, and creative of, historical conditions and geographical emplacement. The articles range in time from 6000 BC to the present, and in space from Alaska and Melanesia to Belfast and Berlin. They show how the cultural and political analysis of landscape cuts across many disciplinary boundaries and how perceptions of the land and its history are created, negotiated and contested.

Review: Landscape: Politics and Perspectives

Gebruikersrecensie  - Perri - Goodreads

This volume seems like a little bit of a mixed bag, especially if you're reading for a particular treatment or approach to landscape. The emphasis on politics and landscapes that may be suffused with power is a nice change from other volumes that neglect this important aspect. Volledige recensie lezen
