520 | |a Considering history in terms of the categorical development of space - social, territorial and conceptual - this book examines the forces that drove people to ignore their surroundings by distancing culture from place and by assiduously advancing the dissolution of social bonds. Thus beneath the question of the surround, and the key to its renewal today, is the quest to re-engage the common. The latter is still a part of the approach to space, its arrangement and disposition, and has a necessary environmental dimension. Concepts of urbanism, place identity, picturesque landscape and nature are part of a larger Western intellectual and cultural context but, by examining the imaging of cities and landscape, the author links particular American geographic settings - as well as the political ideals and practices of the republic - to the application and aesthetic reading of these ideas. | ||
