Written in collaboration with the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS) and LE: NOTRE, The Routledge Handbook of Teaching Landscape provides a wide-ranging overview of teaching landscape subjects, from geology to landscape design, reflecting different perspectives and practices at university-level landscape curricula. Focusing on the didactics of landscape education, this fully illustrated handbook presents and discusses pedagogy, teaching traditions, experimental teaching methods and new teaching principles. The book is structured into three parts: reading the landscape, representing the landscape and transforming the landscape. Contributions from leading experts in the field, such as Simon Bell, Marc Treib, Jörg Rekittke and Susan Herrington, explore landscape analysis, history and theory, design visualisation, creativity and art, planning studio teaching, field trips and site engineering. Aimed at engaging academic researchers and instructors across disciplines such as landscape architecture, geography, ecology, planning and archaeology, this book is a must-have guide to landscape pedagogy as it stands today.

Teaching Landscape: The Studio Experience gathers a range of expert contributions from across the world to collect best-practice examples of teaching landscape architecture studios. This is the companion volume to The Routledge Handbook of Teaching Landscape in the two-part set initiated by the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS). Design and planning studio as a form of teaching lies at the core of landscape architecture education. They can simulate a professional situation and promote the development of creative solutions based on gaining an understanding of a specific project site or planning area; address existing challenges in urban and rural landscapes; and often involve interaction with real stakeholders, such as municipality representatives, residents or activist groups. In this way, studio-based planning and design teaching brings students closer to everyday practice, helping to prepare them to create real-world, problem-solving designs. This book provides fully illustrated examples of studios from over twenty different schools of landscape architecture worldwide. With over 250 full colour images, it is an essential resource for instructors and academics across the landscape discipline, for the continuously evolving process of discussing and generating improved teaching modes in landscape architecture.

This stimulating book explores theories, conceptual frameworks, and cultural approaches with the purpose of uncovering a cross-cultural understanding of landscape democracy, a concept at the intersection of landscape, democracy and spatial justice. The authors of Defining Landscape Democracy address a number of questions that are critical to the contemporary discourse on the right to landscape: Why is democracy relevant to landscape? How do we democratise landscape? How might we achieve landscape and spatial justice?

A Path to Spatial Justice

Defining Landscape Democracy

Neil Young har gennem 50 år og på lige så mange albums været én af rockmusikkens vigtigste skikkelser, både som innovator og som bevarer af genrens klassiske dyder. Hans betydning er gået fra generation til generation, fra folkrock i Buffalo Springfield, til singer/songwriter i 1970’erne og videre til pro-punk og pre-grunge i 1980’erne og 1990’erne. Indimellem har der været middelmådighed, blindgyder og eklatante fiaskoer, men Neil har altid rejst sig igen og lavet monumentale tidsdefinerende plader. Samtidig har Neil Young brugt karrieren til at være fortaler for økologi og bæredygtighed - både lokalt og globalt - så tidligt som på ‘After The Gold Rush’ i 1970 og frem til det seneste album ‘The Monsanto Years ‘fra 2015. Karsten Jørgensen fortæller historien bag musikken, fra de tidligste år i Canada og forældrenes skilsmisse, om de evindelige slagsmål og svigt i samarbejdet i Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young og den ambivalente berømmelse med ‘Harvest’, om personlige tragedier og forholdet til de musikalske våbenbrødre i backinggruppen Crazy Horse, som har fulgt ham gennem tykt og tyndt.

en biografi

Neil Young

I midten af halvfjerdserne dukkede Bruce Springsteen op på den internationale rockscene og blev hurtigt udråbt til både ”rock’n’roll musikkens fremtid” og ”den nye Bob Dylan”. I de 40 år, der er gået siden, har han formået at fastholde et højt kvalitetsniveau på de fleste af sine plader, og han rager op som et af de allerstørste navne i rockhistorien.
