Landschaft

In this volume, various manifestations of landscape provide the basis for questions regarding how it is identified, constructed, and shaped. A look is thus taken at how landscape is quasi mediated medially as an archive, as well as at the activities, values, and meanings inscribed in it and these revealing modes of perception. Understood as an environment in the broadest sense, it assumes a concrete shape both as a space for settlement and economic functions and production and also as a form of existence for biodiversity. The landscape corresponds with this perspective as a location for a designed nature that assists in educating people. The contributions break down the apparent dichotomy between nature and culture and take into account the complexity of landscape.
