Book Synopsis The Enclosure Maps of England and Wales 1595-1918 by : Roger J. P. Kain
Download or read book The Enclosure Maps of England and Wales 1595-1918 written by Roger J. P. Kain and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first comprehensive study of the enclosure mapping of England and Wales. Enclosure maps are fundamental sources of evidence in many types of historical inquiries. Although modern historians tend to view these large-scale maps essentially as sources of data on past economies and societies, this book argues that enclosure maps had a much more active role at the time they were compiled. Seen from this perspective of their contemporary society, enclosure maps are not simply antiquarian curiosities, cultural artefacts, or useful sources for historians but instruments of land reorganisation and control which both reflected and consolidated the power of those who commissioned them. The book is accompanied by a fully searchable, descriptive and analytical web catalogue of all parliamentary and non-parliamentary enclosure maps extant in public archives and libraries and offers an essential research tool for economic, social and local historians and for geographers, lawyers and planners.
Book Synopsis Common Land in English Painting, 1700-1850 by : Ian Waites
Download or read book Common Land in English Painting, 1700-1850 written by Ian Waites and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of the treatment of common land in the work of English painters, at a time when much of it was to disappear forever. A most elegantly written book that calmly knocked many entrenched but erroneous notions about British landscape painting firmly on the head. Longlisted and commended by the judges of the 2013 William M. B. Berger prize forBritish art history. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, much of England's common land was eradicated by the processes of parliamentary enclosure. However, despite the fact that the landscape was frequentlyviewed as unproductive, outmoded and unsightly, many British landscape painters of the time - including Constable, Gainsborough and Turner - resolutely continued to depict it. This book is the first full study of how they did so, using evidence drawn not only from art-historical picture analysis, but from contemporary poems and novels, and the contemporary pamphlets, essays and reports that advanced the rhetoric of both agricultural improvement and new theories on landscape aesthetics. It highlights a deep-rooted social and cultural attachment to the common field landscape, and demonstrates that common land played a significant but - until now - underestimated role in both the history of English art and of the formation of an English national identity, reflecting what are still highly sensitive issues of progress, nostalgia and loss within the English countryside. Recasting common land as a recurrentfacet of English culture in the modern period, the numerous paintings, drawings and prints featured in this book give the reader a comprehensive and evocative sense of what this now almost wholly lost landscape looked like in itshey-day. Ian Waites is Senior Lecturer in History of Art and Design at the University of Lincoln.

Book Synopsis People, Land and Time by : Brian Roberts
Download or read book People, Land and Time written by Brian Roberts and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major new text provides an introduction to the interaction of culture and society with the landscape and environment. It offers a broad-based view of this theme by drawing upon the varied traditions of landscape interpretation, from the traditional cultural geography of scholars such as Carl Sauer to the 'new' cultural geography which has emerged in the 1990s. The book comprises three major, interwoven strands. First, fundamental factors such as environmental change and population pressure are addressed in order to sketch the contextual variables of landscapes production. Second, the evolution of the humanised landscape is discussed in terms of processes such as clearing wood, the impact of agriculture, the creation of urban-industrial complexes, and is also treated in historical periods such as the pre-industrial, the modern and the post-modern. From this we can see the cultural and economic signatures of human societies at different times and places. Finally, examples of landscape types are selected in order to illustrate the ways in which landscape both represents and participates in social change. The authors use a wide range of source material, ranging from place-names and pollen diagrams to literature and heritage monuments. Superbly illustrated throughout, it is essential reading for first-year undergraduates studying historical geography, human geography, cultural geography or landscape history.
Book Synopsis Parliamentary Enclosure in England by : Gordon E Mingay
Download or read book Parliamentary Enclosure in England written by Gordon E Mingay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enclosure transformed the old open fields and common lands of England to create the modern rural landscape. It changed forever the life of many villages, but provided food for a rapidly rising population. Its methods and consequences were controversial - many rural poor lost their access to land - and the subject is still a cause of dispute. Gordon Mingay's authoritative survey guides the reader through the complexities of the topic. He describes the processes by which land was reorganised and analyses the impact of enclosure regionally. Throughout he stresses the extent of local variation which make the subject so complex.

Book Synopsis Landscape: Pattern, Perception and Process by : Simon Bell
Download or read book Landscape: Pattern, Perception and Process written by Simon Bell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a fresh approach to the theory of design, Landscape: Pattern, Perception and Process synthesizes planning, design and ecology and shows a new view of where design can develop. The book brings together the work and subject areas of a range of disciplines including psychologists, philosophers, geologists, ecologists, cultural geographers, foresters, urban planners and landscape architects and synthesizes all these together. Since many landscape and environmental problems require multi-disciplinary approaches for their solution, this book demonstrates how the best integration can be achieved. Highly illustrated, it contains examples from North America, Canada, Europe and Australasia. Glossary, references and further reading provide the reader with guidance and back-up resources.

Book Synopsis Roads and Tracks for Historians by : Brian Paul Hindle
Download or read book Roads and Tracks for Historians written by Brian Paul Hindle and published by Phillimore. This book was released on 2001 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the roads we use today are tarmaced extensions of pre-existing roads and trackways and whilst some of these early roads will have been deliberately planned and built, others will have developed over time by the passage of traffic over the same route. Paul Hindle's history is a revised and updated version of a book long out of print, Roads, Tracks and their Interpretation. In it he looks at the development of roads through time, though focusing largely on the Roman, medieval and post-medieval periods, and their function in facilitating the movement of people, animals, agricultural produce and other goods, and the military. Based on documentary evidence, maps and fieldwork observations, this is a good guide to understanding the development of the roads and tracks that criss-cross Britain.
