Ideology and Landscape in Historical Perspective: Essays on the Meanings of some Places in the Past - Cambridge Studies in Historical Geography
Alan R H Baker
Landscapes of material are also landscapes of meaning. In this book fifteen historical geographers examine landscapes as messages to be decoded, as signs to be deciphered. The essays are principally concerned with the ideologies of religion and of politics, of Church and of state, and their historical impress upon the landscape.
