Book ID/图书代码: 00870011B50054
English Summary/英文概要: Inspiring deep emotion, landscape carries many meanings. This book follows the development of several threads of the concept of landscape as they have evolved across disciplines and across countries, leading to the European Landscape Convention and the designation of cultural landscapes as World Heritage Sites. The book introduces the key notions of landscape, such as landscape as meaning, as picture, as scale, as scenery and as place. It also considers the various factors which influence the way in which landscape is perceived now and in the past, with all of the senses. Finally, it looks of the various ways of protecting, managing and enhancing the landscape, taking into account a future of climate change.
Beautifully illustrated and including ’capsules’ in each section which provide fascinating insights into subjects from reading pictures, to mapping and GIS, through a discussion of the range of types of landscape to issues such as eco-museums, this book provides an excellent introductory overview for any students with an interest in the landscape around us.

Awards/获奖情况:“令人兴奋…..列昂纳德在众多学科上的博学令人眼花缭乱--就像闪烁的烟火,有时延展到30或者更多参考—从不是为自己的目的而奉献。相反,它激起了列昂纳德的有感染力的热情,是他成为当代文化界的佼佼者。列昂纳德散文的生动性有助于他的尖锐批判能够经得起时间的考验。”——哈维. Freedenberg,货架意识。
“这本书真是太棒了……你应该买这本书,就像在日常生活中拥有普通版奥威尔和迪迪翁一样去拥有它….,列昂纳德的书之所以如此深远,是因为他对文学的深深信仰。”——肯扬评论博客
“列昂纳德的写作风格就像一个人拿着一把短弯刀与匕首对战。作为一个全球文化和美国文学的历史,作为隐形标准和思想文化史,这极大的讽刺了包装。因为文化已经打碎了——混乱,激情,形学。列昂纳德的成就是不可重复的。”——特洛伊帕特森,记载书评
列昂纳德(1939-2008),纽约时报书评的长期审稿人和兼职编辑,通过这些语句显示出他惊人的博学多识。他的散文很有趣味性,不拘礼节。同时他也可以在意想不到的时候让你悲伤。显而易见一个伟大的评论家即要有一个书呆子的习惯,也要有一颗宽广的心。——科克斯书评
