Summary:
In recent years, landscape has become increasingly recognised as a topic of central importance to a wide variety of disciplines. To a large degree this recognition has been based upon an expanding appreciation of the political aspects of landscape, its ideological character and effects. "Landscapes and Politics" is an innovative cross-disciplinary volume of new writing which brings together, in a strategic and productive encounter, a broad variety of critical work currently being done in this field. With 28 papers and five photo essays "Landscapes and Politics" presents material by scholars and practitioners from anthropology, archaeology, architecture, art history, cultural studies, English and American literature, film studies, fine art, geography, history, landscape architecture, philosophy, political science, and religious studies. As an important marker of current methodologies, research and practice across these different disciplinary areas Landscapes and Politics is an invaluable resource. It will be of interest to all those concerned with current discourses and debates on landscape and its representation.

Mais les mots du paysage et du jardin sont aussi très familiers : ce sont les mots de l'émotion, de la sensation, de l'impression et du sentiment. La plupart de ces mots sont utilisés par le plus grand nombre, car le goût pour les paysages et les jardins n'est plus aujourd'hui réservé à des privilégiés ; il s'est démocratisé. Ce dictionnaire est une première étape. Il ne cherche pas à borner ou à normaliser les langages des différents groupes professionnels concernés par le paysage et le jardin, mais à améliorer la compréhension mutuelle de ces derniers, aussi bien dans la pratique que dans l'enseignement et la recherche.

Summary:
Loin d’être un objet statique, existant en soi, le paysage naît d’une dynamique, d’une construction par-delà la simple présence physique de la nature. C’est donc tout naturellement que le terme la Mouvance désigne ce mouvement évolutif. Dans le même temps, cette dénomination recouvre aussi un mouvement d’idées, celui qui donna naissance, en 1991, à la première formation(...)

Summary:
Loin d’être un objet statique, existant en soi, le paysage naît d’une dynamique, d’une construction par-delà la simple présence physique de la nature. C’est donc tout naturellement que le terme la Mouvance désigne ce mouvement évolutif. Dans le même temps, cette dénomination recouvre aussi un mouvement d’idées, celui qui donna naissance, en 1991, à la première formation doctorale française sur le paysage. Réunis autour de Bernard Lassus, plasticien et paysagiste, on retrouve Augustin Berque, Michel Conan, Pierre Donadieu, Alain Roger, les principaux enseignants de cette aventure, des partenaires venus d’horizons différents (paysagisme, écologie, géographie, sociologie, philosophie). L’ouvrage n’est pas un dictionnaire du paysage, mais un glossaire qui reflète les convictions fondamentales de ces cinq auteurs. Chacun d’eux définit, ici, les dix notions les plus représentatives de sa réflexion. Au total, cinquante mots et références bibliographiques pour penser le paysage au XXIe siècle. Avec dessins de Bernard Lassus.

Summary:
"Landscape and History" explores a complex relationship over the past five centuries. The book is international and interdisciplinary in scope, drawing on material from social, economic and cultural history as well as from geography, archaeology, cultural geography, planning and landscape history. In recent years, as the author points out, there has been increasing interest in, and concern for, many aspects of landscape within British, European and wider contexts. This has included the study of the history, development and changes in our perception of landscape, as well as research into the links between past landscapes and political ideologies, economic and social structures, cartography, art and literature. There is also considerable concern at present with the need to evaluate and classify historic landscapes, and to develop policies for their conservation and management in relation to their scenic, heritage and recreational value. This is manifest not only in the designation of particularly valued areas with enhanced protection from planning developments, such as national parks and world heritage sites, but in the countryside more generally. Further, Ian D. Whyte argues, changes in European Union policies relating to agriculture, with a greater concern for the protection and sustainable management of rural landscapes, are likely to be of major importance in relation to the themes of continuity and change in the landscapes of Britain and Europe.

Summary:
Highly visual and containing contributions from leading names in landscape, architecture and design, this volume provides a rare insight into people’s engagement with the outdoor environment; looking at the ways in which the design of spaces and places meets people’s needs and desires in the twenty-first century. Embracing issues of social inclusion, recreation, and environmental quality, the editors explore innovative ways to develop an understanding of how the landscape, urban or rural, can contribute to health and quality of life. Open Space: People Space examines the nature and value of people’s access to outdoor environments. Led by Edinburgh’s OPENspace research centre, the debate focuses on current research to support good design for open space and brings expertise from a range of disciplines to look at: - an analysis of policy and planning issues and challenges - understanding the nature and experience of exclusion - the development of evidence-based inclusive design -innovative research approaches which focus on people’s access to open space and the implications of that experience. Invaluable to policy makers, researchers, urban designers, landscape architects, planners, managers and students, it is also essential reading for those working in child development, health care and community development.
