Présentation : ill., fig., tabl., couv. ill. en coul. Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78427-264-7 Prix : 46.98 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : forêt  arbres  paysage Résumé : From antiquity until today, trees and woods have inspired artists, writers and scientists; they have shaped cultures and reverberated through belief systems. Yet worldwide forest cover has declined dramatically over the last 1,000 years. Now, primeval forests are only to be found at a few sites unreachable by humans, and even then they are affected by climate change, atmospheric pollution and species extinctions. Nonetheless, ancient woods, trees and forests are at the core of many global landscapes. Understanding the vital resources that they provide requires genuinely multidisciplinary research. With contributions from major authorities in the field such as Oliver Rackham, Frans Vera, Elisabeth Johann, George Peterken and Melvyn Jones among others, this timely volume reflects on the importance of our oldest trees from a range of perspectives and varied geographical locations. Individual chapters consider eco-cultural heritage, the archaeology of trees, landscape history, forest rights, tree management, saproxylic insects, the importance of deadwood, practical conservation and monitoring, biodiversity, wood-pasture and more. Fresh insights are provided from across Europe as far as Turkey. Given the urgent need to understand, conserve and restore ancient woodlands and trees, this book will do much raise awareness, foster enthusiasm and inspire wonder.

Seeing trees / Sonja Dümpelmann

Public ISBD Aucun avis sur cette notice. Titre : Seeing trees : a history of street trees in New York City and Berlin Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Sonja Dümpelmann, Auteur Editeur : Londres : Yale University Press Année de publication : 2019 Importance : 1 vol. (XI-318 p.-[16] p. de pl.) Présentation : ill. en noir et en coul., cartes, plans, jaquette ill. Format : 27 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-300-22578-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : arbres  villes  végétation urbaine  aménagement urbain  Berlin  New-York Résumé : Today, cities around the globe are planting street trees to mitigate the effects of climate change. However, as landscape historian Sonja Dümpelmann explains, the planting of street trees in cities to serve specific functions is not a new phenomenon. In her eye-opening work, Dümpelmann shows how New York City and Berlin began systematically planting trees to improve the urban climate during the nineteenth century, presenting the history of the practice within its larger social, cultural, and political contexts. A unique integration of empirical research and theory, Dümpelmann’s richly illustrated work uncovers this important untold story. Street trees—variously regarded as sanitizers, nuisances, upholders of virtue, economic engines, and more—reflect the changing relationship between humans and nonhuman nature in urban environments. Offering valuable insights and frameworks, this authoritative volume will be an important resource for years to come. (editeur) Note de contenu : Notes bibliogr.
