Most
of the time, when we think about landscape we think about
it as an object that is separate from us. In this course we
compare and contrast the Eurocentric view of landscape as
an object separate from the self with various other cultural
perspectives that offer alternative narratives in which landscape
and identity are understood as connected rather than separate.
The examination of cultural perspectives that challenge the
Eurocentric view of landscape’s relationship to self
will run parallel to an ongoing exploration of how landscape
can inform questions about the personal and social implications
of living within an era of globalization. This course is open
to LARC major students and students from other departments
and disciplines on campus. It is a course that is designed
to stimulate conversation about how landscape and identity
interrelate and how a comparison of various cultural constructions
of the landscape-identity informs each other.
