Landscapes is the second in our new series of environmentalhistory readers, suitable for students and researchers. Comprisingessays selected from our journals, Environment and History andEnvironmental Values, each inexpensive paperback volumeaddresses an important theme in environmental history,combining underlying theory and specific case-studies.Landscapes explores the conceptualisation of environments aslandscape, philosophically and historically. Excursions inlandscape aesthetics contextualise case studies of landscapesperceived, constructed and responded to, from the plantations ofSouth Africa to the Australian outback, the medieval Ardennes tonuclear-age America. Literary and artistic versions of landscapeare studied alongside those driven by policy and pragmatism,probing the intersections of the transcendent and the ideological.
