Is Landscape . . . ? surveys multiple and myriad definitions of landscape. Rather than seeking a singular or essential understanding of the term, the collection postulates that landscape might be better read in relation to its cognate terms across expanded disciplinary and professional fields. The publication pursues the potential of multiple provisional working definitions of landscape to both disturb and develop received understandings of landscape architecture. These definitions distinguish between landscape as representational medium, academic discipline, and professional identity. Beginning with an inquiry into the origins of the term itself, Is Landscape . . . .? features essays by a dozen leading voices shaping the contemporary reading of landscape as architecture and beyond.

is landscape... essays on the identity of landscape pdf

Hans Teerds

In this article a short overview is given to the (re)thinking of the landscape as a figure of human inhibition. Published in OASE#80, On Territories. Rotterdam 2008, NAi Publishers

Kathryn Moore

We have lost an important connection with the landscape, a way of seeing and understanding its profound significance in our everyday life and culture. This gap in our knowledge is the consequence of a rationalist paradigm that continues to dominate western thinking, a conceptual void that threatens the landscape in the face of 21st century challenges. An alternative philosophical approach argues that refocusing attention on materiality and re-evaluating the relationship communities have with the land would be an important step towards addressing the problem, but it does demand a very different role and agenda for philosophy. This chapter illustrates the potential of a new way of thinking about landscape, consciousness and design and aims to initiate a new discourse by abandoning the philosophical filters that currently obscure a meaningful engagement with the built environment. This would help to establish an expanded definition of landscape as a vital means of achieving a better quality of life and robust sustainable development.

The rediscovery of the landscape

In this article I have tried to summarize my ideas about the Goddess heritage, as a kind of introduction to my book ‘The Survival and Revival of the Goddess Heritage’ . In particular I describe the way it is inextricably related to our experience of the (sacred) landscape. I show that the experience of being fully embedded in the landscape offers something very important for our time and is being rediscovered in our time. In 2016 I wrote a short version of this article, entitled ‘In the Beginning was the Landscape’, which is included in the wonderful anthology 'Awaken the Feminine! Dismantling Domination to Restore Balance on Mother Earth', edited by Karen Tate and published in 2018.
