Abstract:
Conversations With Landscape moves beyond conventional dualist approaches to the study of landscape and its relation with humans. With contributions drawn from a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, geography, archaeology, philosophy, literature and the visual arts, this book explores the affects and emotions that are intrinsic to all conversations between landscape and humans. It will appeal to scholars and researchers across a range of social sciences and humanities
