Paperback. The Extraordinary in the Ordinary. An Anthropology of Landscapetells the fascinating story of a heathland landscape in south-west England and the way different individuals and groups engage with it. Based on a long-term anthropological study, the book emphasises four individual themes embodied identities, the landscape as a sensuous material form that is acted upon and in turn acts on people, the landscape as contested, and its relation to emotion. The landscape is discussed in relation to these themes as both taskscape and leisurescape, and from the perspective of different user groups. The book makes an innovative contribution to BIC Classification: HB. Dimension: 240 x 164 x 28. Weight in Grams: 664.
