This book explores 10,000 years of human habitation in Britain, from prehistory to the Victorian age, and the effect that it has worked on the natural environment. Michael Reed examines the evidence that enables us to recreate landscapes of the past, and looks at the monuments that have been left behind by generations of spiritual and economic activity - burial mounds, churches, monasteries, factories, railways - as well as place-names, field systems, and territorial boundaries. Develops insights into the endless process of accretion which has created the rural and urban landscapes of today.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Britain's landscape, the product both of natural geological processes and some 10,000 years of human habitation, has a uniquely rich historical diversity. In 'The Landscape of Britain,' Michael Reed explains the forces at work in the evolution of the landscape, pointing out examples of surviving evidence from the past.The landscape of late twentieth-century Britain is the end product of human effort directed not only towards satisfying basic physical needs for food and shelter, but also towards expressing profound spiritual and intellectual aspirations, whether by means of burial mounds or churches, schools or monasteries. This volume examines the endless processes of accretion which have created the urban and rural landscapes as today's inhabitants have inherited them, showing how each generation makes its own individual contribution without being able entirely to erase those of its predecessors, however remote or distant in time.
