Landscape Bewertungen

'A welcome contribution to the study of landscape, especially ... the consideration of its cosmological dimension.'Urban Studies'...an excellent selection of stimulating, well-written papers, which clarify the political dimensions of landscape. The embeddedness of the political, the cognitive and the ideological in past and present landscapes,,,is made crystal clear, with little heavy polemic, by the case studies presented. ...a refreshing book, a guidebook for a tour of wider horizons; it should be on every landscape student's bookshelf.'Landscape History'...the rather eccentric but very exciting collection of 10 papers...Why are landscapes so important to humans at all? These are some of the thought-provoking questions that run through the book, although each author addresses them in different ways.'Antiquity'...a rich and stimulating book. It appears at an opportune moment...will stimulate further reflectionand assist the developing debate in a positive fashion.'Ecumene
