Since the turn of the millennium, there has been a burgeoning
interest in, and literature of, both landscape studies and food
studies. Landscape describes places as relationships and processes.
Landscapes create people's identities and guide their actions and
their preferences, while at the same time are shaped by the actions
and forces of people. Food, as currency, medium, and sustenance, is
a fundamental part of those landscape relationships. This volume
brings together over fifty contributors from around the world in
forty profoundly interdisciplinary chapters. Chapter authors
represent an astonishing range of disciplines, from agronomy,
anthropology, archaeology, conservation, countryside management,
cultural studies, ecology, ethics, geography, heritage studies,
landscape architecture, landscape management and planning,
literature, urban design and architecture. Both food studies and
landscape studies defy comprehension from the perspective of a
single discipline, and thus such a range is both necessary and
enriching. The Routledge Handbook of Landscape and Food is intended
as a first port of call for scholars and researchers seeking to
undertake new work at the many intersections of landscape and food.
Each chapter provides an authoritative overview, a broad range of
pertinent readings and references, and seeks to identify areas
where new research is needed-though these may also be identified in
the many fertile areas in which subjects and chapters overlap
within the book.
