Summary:
Studies of the landscape have ranged from discussions of cultural geography at one end and botany at the other, with quite a mix in between. In this book Marc Treib focuses on the subject of the designed landscape, which he takes to include gardens, cemeteries, plazas, as well as a number of other landscape forms. His writings begin with an investigation of order and its perception: How have humans organized landscapes so that the experience of them could be directed, or even "read," decoded, and understood? His writings include analyses of both historical and contemporary works, with a geographic distribution that treats Asia as well as Europe and North America. Certain essays address the question of content in landscape design, others its meaning; others examine the lives and contributions of major figures in the field, for example, cultural landscape historian John Brinckerhoff Jackson and landscape architect Garrett Eckbo; subjects such as influence also receive the author's attention. As a whole, the essays cover a remarkable range, examining issues that few other writers have attempted to explain in detail. Treib brings a designer's eye to his work, paring observation and formal analysis with a more theorical formulation of the ideas from which or by which landscape architecture is produced. Photographs by the author complement his writings, adding a visual dimension to the provocative ideas outlined in the essays. While all of these essays have appeared in print over a period of some twenty-five years, many have been published in specialist journals or in a foreign language. Settings and Stray paths assembles a vital collection of Marc Treib's writings on landscape architecture, for the first time in a single source book.

How can landscape and urban studies more effectively engage in transdisciplinary dialogue, sensuousness and affect, and pluriversal worlds? "Researching otherwise" presents sensory, collaborative, and restitutive methodological tools for crafting new spaces of knowledge production. Through activities such as drawing, photographing, filmmaking, sounding, listening, walking, and mapmaking, these researchers explore regenerative futures in new ways, from non-human companions to visual ethnographic studies with refugees. With contributions by Nitin Bathla, Denise Bertschi, Nancy Couling, Luke Harris, Metaxia Markaki, Bonnie Kate Walker, and more.

This book comprises a variety of contributions that take a multitude of approaches to tree life, from sensory to ancestral, intimate to speculative. Taking the time to think about trees through imagination, art, music, storytelling, poetry, and images, the works in this reader share the aim of nurturing and furthering dialogue that exercises arboreal kinship. Moreover, the contributions inspire us to move beyond large systems of oppression and towards exorcizing anthropocentrism, capitalism, individualism, heteronormativity, and coloniality, by learning from and with tree time.

Summary:
''Designed Forests: A Cultural History'' explores the unique kinship that exists between forests and spatial design; the forest’s influence on architectural culture and practice; and the potentials and pitfalls of “forest thinking” for more sustainable and ethical ways of doing architecture today. It tackles these subjects by focusing on architecture’s own dispositions, which stem from an ecology of metaphor that surrounds its encounters with the forest and undergird ideas about Nature and natural systems. The book weaves together global narratives and chapters explore a range of topics, such as the invention of forest plans in colonial India, the war waged on the jungles of Vietnam, economic land use concepts in rural Germany, precolonial ecological pasts in Manhattan, and technologically saturated forests in California. This book is essential for landscape architects, urbanists, architects, forestry experts, and everyone concerned with larger environmental contexts and the ever-evolving relationship between nature and culture.

Summary:
John Stilgoe is just looking around. This is more difficult than it sounds, particularly in our mediated age, when advances in both theory and technology too often seek to replace the visual evidence before our own eyes rather than complement it. We are surrounded by landscapes charged with our past, and yet from our earliest schooldays we are instructed not to stare out the window. Someone who stops to look isn’t only a rarity; he or she is suspect. "Landscape and images" records a lifetime spent observing America’s constructed landscapes. Stilgoe’s essays follow the eclectic trains of thought that have resulted from his observation, from the postcard preference for sunsets over sunrises to the concept of "teen geography" to the unwillingness of Americans to walk up and down stairs. In Stilgoe's hands, the subject of jack o’ lanterns becomes an occasion to explore centuries-old concepts of boundaries and trespassing, and to examine why this originally pagan symbol has persisted into our own age.
