Description - Landscape by Michael Jakob
The contemporary debate on landscape is no longer an exclusive idiolect; it has expanded into a relentless babel. The field is glutted with an ever-increasing number of articles, collective works and conventions. Once marginal, landscape has now become central, even essential to philosophy and geography. Its significance within sociological, anthropological and archaeological theories has also strengthened exponentially, making it the rising star of academia. This book acknowledges the importance of eco-theory to contemporary thought, exploring the limits of its study as well as the new horizons it opens up. AUTHOR: Michael Jakob is a professor of history and theory of landscape at the Polytechnic of Lausanne (EPFL) and the School of Engineering in Geneva (hepia), and Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Grenoble. SELLING POINT: A study on an evolving field, which is currently at the heart of social science discourse 100 colour images
