The Eclipse of Urbanism and the Greening of Public Space

Image Making and the Search for a Commons in the United States 1682-1865

af Mark Luccarelli

Luccarelli roots the rise of environmental awareness in the political and geographical history of the US. He considers history in terms of categorical development of space - social, territorial and conceptual - looking at urban and regional contexts, and the work of artists, writers and public figures, including Jefferson, Thoreau and Olmsted.
