About this book

Understanding Cultural Landscapes provides an introduction to the range of approaches characterising the study of landscape and culture. This textbook discusses the origins, underpinnings, and practical applications of social science and humanities scholarship concerning landscape and its theorisation.

The book offers an easy-to-digest introduction to relevant approaches and ideas in the study of landscape. The text includes practical, real-world examples drawn from a range of social science and humanities disciplines to showcase the interpretation of landscape by different means and to different ends. "Pauses for thought" encourage the reader to reflect and connect ideas and debates to examples encountered in their own life and work. Suggested activities support independent study and aid the design and delivery of university teaching. Each chapter also includes suggested readings, and the textbook includes discussion of research methods for those developing their own research projects.

This book will be valuable for both students and educators encountering, or teaching, the study of landscape within the humanities and social sciences for the first time. The incorporation of practical exercises and suggested reading enables the book to supplement independent study or be used as a teaching aid.
