Résumé:
In 'Underland', Robert Macfarlane takes us on a journey into the worlds beneath our feet. From the ice-blue depths of Greenland's glaciers, to the underground networks by which trees communicate, from Bronze Age burial chambers to the rock art of remote Arctic sea-caves, this is a deep-time voyage into the planet's past and future.

Résumé:
Most people do not think to observe geology from the sidewalks of a major city, but all David B. Williams has to do is look at building stone in any urban center to find a range of rocks equal to any assembled by plate tectonics. In 'Stories in Stone', he takes you on explorations to find 3.5-billion-year-old rock that looks like swirled pink-and-black taffy, a gas(...)

Emphasizing the significance of her childhood ''friend'' Walt Whitman, through whose work she first understood that a poem is a temple, ''a place to enter, and in which to feel,'' and who encouraged her to vanish into the world of her writing, Oliver meditates on the forces that allowed her to create a life for herself out of work and love. As she writes, ''I could not be a poet without the natural world. Someone else could. But not me. For me the door to the woods is the door to the temple.''

Résumé:
Ecartée au XXe siècle au profit de la photographie, la pratique du dessin s'inscrit dans une longue tradition des sciences naturelles et de la botanique. Parce qu'il interprète autant qu'il décrit, le dessin amplifie la vision et permet de saisir dans son ensemble la réalité d'un objet vivant et complexe. L'arbre est de ceux-là, et des trésors d'informations, qui échappent aux outils d'enregistrement les plus modernes, surgissent opportunément sous le crayon expert de David Dellas. Par la puissance de son réalisme, l'ouvrage procure un sentiment de proximité et d'émerveillement, et, comme l'indique Francis Hallé, "nous voyons enfin les arbres et arbustes de nos régions comme ils sont réellement, représentés avec une précision et une sensibilité telles que leur identification devient aisée et presque immédiate". Au fil d'un sobre et vibrant plaidoyer iconographique pour la biodiversité ordinaire, l'auteur pro- pose une "flore" accessible à tous, permettant de découvrir et de reconnaître les arbres champêtres, compagnons de notre quotidien, dont on a oublié la noblesse, la rusticité et les grandes utilités... Des arbres discrets et ignorés, qui jouent pourtant un rôle transversal et précieux dans le devenir et la durabilité des territoires et de l'agriculture.

Résumé:
''Reciprocal landscapes: stories of material movements'' traces five everyday landscape construction materials – fertilizer, stone, steel, trees, and wood – from seminal public landscapes in New York City, back to where they came from. Drawing from archival documents, photographs, and field trips, the author brings these two separate landscapes – the material’s source and the urban site where the material ended up – together, exploring themes of unequal ecological exchange, labor, and material flows. This book considers the social, political, and ecological entanglements of material practice, challenging readers to think of materials not as inert products but as continuous with land and the people that shape them, and to reimagine forms of construction in solidarity with people, other species, and landscapes elsewhere.
