Abstract

The landscape is itself a text that is open to interpretation and transformation... It is the well-formed world of occupied places as opposed to the world outside of that - the unplaced place. In other words, prior to language, "landscape" is a phenomenon beyond immediate comprehension; it is not until we choose a prospect and map what we see, marking some aspects, ignoring others that landscape acquires meaning. Such interventions include paintings, poems, myths, and literature, in addition to buildings and other interventions upon the land (Corner 1991 p 129).
