Walking, Landscape and Environment explores walking as a method of
research and practice in the humanities and creative arts, emerging
from a recent surge of growth in urban and rural walking. This
edited collection of essays from leading figures in the field
presents an enquiry into, and a critique of, the methods and
results of cutting-edge 'walking research'. Walking negotiates the
intersections between the human self, place and space, offering a
cross-disciplinary collaborative method of research which can be
utilised in areas such as ecocriticism, landscape architecture,
literature, cultural geography and the visual arts. Bringing
together a multitude of perspectives from different disciplines, on
topics including health and wellbeing, disability studies, social
justice, ecology and gender, this book provides a unique appraisal
of the humanist perspective on landscape. In doing so, it
challenges Romantic approaches to walking, applying new ideas in
contemporary critical thought and alternative perspectives on
embodiment and trans-corporeality.
