Cultural Landscape Heritage in Sub-Saharan Africa
ISBN: 9780884024101 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the longest occupied and least studied landscapes on earth. While scholarship has been attentive to images of nature made by the region's explorers and settlers and to landscapes of the colonial era--public parks and game preserves, botanical gardens and urban plans--surprisingly little attention has been paid to spaces created by and for Africans themselves, from the precolonial era to the present. This book is a contribution to a small but growing effort to address this oversight. Its essays present a range of landscapes: pathways and cairns used by nomadic...

ISBN: 9780884023852 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The vision of a garden shared peacefully by humans and animals is a familiar, but elusive, landscape trope. Whether threatened by habitat destruction or climate change, displaced by urbanization or invasive species, poisoned by industrial toxins, or hunted to extinction, many wild animals have failed to thrive in the company of people. There is growing scientific consensus that we are in the midst of the sixth great extinction in earth history and the first caused by human activities. What agency can landscape architects and garden designers have in conserving or restoring wildlife...

Out There: Landscape Architecture in the Global Terrain
ISBN: 9783775742597 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. City and country are generally regarded as opposites. But today's landscape architecture explores both of them as a single system, making it possible to see the mutual dependency of these supposedly opposing developments. In view of massive changes in ecological systems, as well as increasing migration and the spread of unplanned human settlements, landscape architecture is also being confronted with global challenges. Out There: Landscape Architecture in the Global Terrain is a plea to redefine the discipline's position. Innovative but complex approaches are presented in...

Women, Modernity, and Landscape Architecture
ISBN: 9780415745871 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Modernity was critically important to the formation and evolution of landscape architecture, yet its histories in the discipline are still being written. This book looks closely at the work and influences of some of the least studied figures of the era: established and less well-known female landscape architects who pursued modernist ideals in their designs. The women discussed in this volume belong to the pioneering first two generations of professional landscape architects and were outstanding in the field.
