«Technologies of Landscape: From Reaping to Recycling» is the essay collection edited by David E. Nye, in paperback (292 pages, in English).
The volume brings together essays that question the opposition between technology and nature and analyze how societies have shaped the landscape from the Renaissance to today, with cases from Europe and America ranging from the English countryside to polluted Louisiana. The work argues that the meaning of a place matters as much as its physical construction.
Collective work with contributions by Paul Brassley, James Dickinson, Jacob Wamberg and others; published in 2000 by University of Massachusetts Press.
Aimed at readers interested in cultural history, landscape studies and the social impact of technology.
