Nous avons une pensée du paysage, mais nous n'avons plus de pensée paysagère, c'est-à-dire cette pensée concrète, vivante et agissante qui s'exprimait par de beaux paysages. Fétichiser cet objet de consommation (touristique, immobilière, académique etc.) qu'est aujourd'hui le paysage, cela ne suffira pas pour retrouver cette manière d'être qui s'incarnait dans la pensée paysagère.

Caspar David Friedrich (1774–1840) is heralded as the greatest painter of the Romantic movement in Germany, and Europe’s first truly modern artist. His mysterious and melancholy landscapes, often peopled with lonely wanderers, are experiments in a radically subjective artistic perspective—one in which, as Freidrich wrote, the painter depicts not “what he sees before him,(...)

Although modern wastewater treatment plants are able to treat such pollution their techniques are not applicable to small municipalities, and especially not to private houses. Through precise analysis of thirty examples of wastewater treatment plants located in different European countries and in the USA, the authors demonstrate the benefits of using water plants in the treatment of wastewater for all kinds of typologies and communities. The different examples are analysed from a functional angle and as an important element of consideration when planning landscape.

Summary:
The highway has become the buyway. Along the millions of miles the public travels, advertisers spend billions on images of cola, cars, vodka, fast food, and swimming pools that blur past us, catching our fleeting attention and turning the landscape into a corridor of commerce. A smart, succinct, and visually compelling history of the billboard in America, Buyways traces how the outdoor advertising industry changed the face of American commercialism. Taking us from itinerant bill-stickers of circus posters in the 19th century to the blinking, beeping, 3-D eyesores of today, Gudis argues that roadside advertising has turned the landscape itself into a commodity to be bought and sold as advertising space.
