Pour la première fois, Martin de la Soudière, ethnologue du « dehors » et du temps qu'il fait, se livre à l'introspection. Cet essai autobiographique sur le paysage est un retour aux origines, une entrée sur le terrain pour l'ethnologue féru de géographie…Véritable « entrée en paysage » qui a pour cadre la montagne, celle des Pyrénées en particulier.Sur le mode du récit, Martin de la Soudière dialogue avec ses pères et ses carnets de travail. Son corpus hors du commun rassemble des écrivains, géographes, paysagistes, peintres, botanistes, mais aussi grimpeurs, militaires, cartographes, taupiers, bergers et autres promeneurs. Tous écrivent leur paysage. Franz Schrader, Élisée Reclus ou Vidal de La Blache habitent l'imaginaire de l'auteur, au même titre que les manuels d'escalades du XIXe siècle ou les livres de géographie du jeune élève des années 1950/1960. Entrer en Pyrénées s'opère aussi à différentes échelles, la vue statique et graphique avec son cadre et sa lumière est indissociable de l'expérience de l'escalade, de la promenade en famille ou de l'expédition aventurière entre frères et soeurs. Comme Martin de la Soudière le dit, on entre en paysage avec le pied et avec la main (on empoigne la matière de la roche pour grimper aux sommets). Mais l'écriture du paysage, en plein vent et en cabinet, est aussi une affaire de rituels. L'auteur scrute les gestes de ses poètes de prédilection : Jean-Loup Trassard arpentant son bocage, Julien Gracq au volant de sa deux-chevaux sur les rives de la Loire, André Dhôtel se perdant dans la forêt des Ardennes, jusqu'à Fernando Pessoa le promeneur immobile de Lisbonne. À travers ses « devanciers » comme il les appelle, l'auteur revendique une intimité du paysage féconde pour la réflexion et pour l'imaginaire.Dans cet ouvrage, Martin de la Soudière « franchit » la montagne en quelque sorte : inaugurant son récit par le souvenir de l'arrivée au seuil des Pyrénées quand il était enfant, le père de famille proclamant au volant de sa 15 chevaux « Et voici nos montagnes », il le termine de l'autre côté du sommet, en Aragon, sur un dialogue avec son frère décédé Vincent, dialogue aux accents d'énigmes sur une vue panoramique.Le récit est accompagné de photos de famille, d'extraits des carnets de Martin, carnets de son enfance jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Pour les amateurs de montagne et randonneurs littéraires, lecteurs d'ethnologie sensible.

Written in collaboration with the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS) and LE: NOTRE, The Routledge Handbook of Teaching Landscape provides a wide-ranging overview of teaching landscape subjects, from geology to landscape design, reflecting different perspectives and practices at university-level landscape curricula. Focusing on the didactics of landscape education, this fully illustrated handbook presents and discusses pedagogy, teaching traditions, experimental teaching methods and new teaching principles. The book is structured into three parts: reading the landscape, representing the landscape and transforming the landscape. Contributions from leading experts in the field, such as Simon Bell, Marc Treib, Jeorg Rekittke and Susan Herrington, explore landscape analysis, history and theory, design visualisation, creativity and art, planning studio teaching, field trips and site engineering. Aimed at engaging academic researchers and instructors across disciplines such as landscape architecture, geography, ecology, planning and archaeology, this book is a must-have guide to landscape pedagogy as it stands today.

Arpenter le paysage est une pratique au long cours pour Martin de la Soudière, une pratique qui engage le corps comme l'esprit : pour le scientifique c'est la rencontre avec le terrain, pour l'homme sensible une expérience existentielle et poétique. Entrerait-on en paysage comme on entre en religion ? Comment un paysage, réel ou imaginé, connu ou fantasmé, nous devient-il intime ? Sa rencontre première avec les Pyrénées, à pied, à bicyclette ou à main nue, empoignant la roche, fait écho au geste d'autres acteurs et spécialistes qu'il convoque ici. Poètes, géographes, paysagistes, peintres, botanistes, mais aussi grimpeurs, militaires, cartographes, taupiers, bergers et autres promeneurs... tous écrivent, vivent, incarnent leur paysage. Reclus ou Vidal de La Blache côtoient Gracq et Pessoa. Ils habitent l'imaginaire de l'auteur, au même titre que les manuels d'escalades du XXe siècle ou les livres de géographie du jeune élève qu'il fut. Dans cette petite ethnologie du paysage, on se meut en barque, en train, on flâne, on dessine et on médite. Entrer en paysage est en somme un geste charnel, fécond pour la réflexion et l'imaginaire.

The intensive increase in land use change is considered both a source of richness and a serious problem to landscape sustainability. In this scenario, although land use change plays a very important role for societal development, the impact of land use changes on economic, social, and ecological functions requires special attention. The new environmental paradigms associated with globalization and progressive climate change will certainly intensify the entropy and the instability in most of the existing land-uses. In this regard, this book aims to highlight a body of knowledge related to the discussion of the opportunities and challenges associated with the development of new sustainable landscapes, considering current and future challenges related to land-use changes and planning.

Human activity during the Anthropocene has transformed landscapes worldwide on a scale that rivals or exceeds even the largest of natural forces. Landscape ecology has emerged as a science to investigate the interactions between natural and anthropogenic landscapes and ecological processes across a wide range of scales and systems: from the effects of habitat or resource distributions on the individual movements, gene flow, and population dynamics of plants and animals; to the human alteration of landscapes affecting the structure of biological communities and the functioning of entire ecosystems; to the sustainable management of natural resources and the ecosystem goods and services upon which society depends. This novel and comprehensive text presents the principles, theory, methods, and applications of landscape ecology in an engaging and accessible format that is supplemented by numerous examples and case studies from a variety of systems, including freshwater and marine "scapes".

This book presents contemporary case studies of land use, management practices, and innovation in Africa with a view to exploring how multifunctional land uses can alleviate food insecurity and poverty. Food security and livelihoods in Africa face multiple challenges in the form of feeding a growing population on declining land areas under the impacts of climate change. The overall question is what kind of farming systems can provide resilient livelihoods? This volume presents a selection of existing farming systems that demonstrate how more efficient use of land and natural resources, labour and other inputs can have positive effects on household food security and livelihoods. It examines how aquaculture, integrated water management, peri-urban farming systems, climate-smart agriculture practices and parkland agroforestry contribute multiple benefits. Drawing on case studies from Kenya, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Burkina Faso, contributed by young African scientists, this book provides a unique perspective on multifunctional land use in Africa and illustrates how non-conventional uses can be profitable while promoting social and environmental sustainability. Tapping into the global discussion on land scarcity and linking food security to existing land use change processes, this volume will stimulate readers looking for diversified land uses that are compatible with both household and national food security ambitions. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of African development, agriculture, food security, land use and environmental management, as well as sustainable development more generally, in addition to policymakers and practitioners working in these areas.

Le second ouvrage de la collection “l'Univers des Vignerons” consacré à la commune de Saint-Emilion est l'œuvre de deux géographes et d'une sociologue. À l'évidence il ne s'agit pas d'un nouveau livre sur les vignobles et les vins de ce bourg dont la réputation mondiale n'est plus à faire. Il s'agit plutôt de trois études sur des points particuliers peu étudiés jusqu'à présent. L'analyse approfondie du cadastre de 1847 restitue l'état rural et social de la commune au milieu du xixe siècle, point de départ d'une autre étude sur l'activité des vignerons dans la défense de leur cru (avec en particulier un intérêt tout spécial porté à l'histoire du syndicat viticole, la naissance de la notion de “château”, la création de la cave coopérative et des classements...). Mais à cette intense action des viticulteurs répondait une aussi intense activité associative dont témoigne le grand nombre de groupes divers, culturels, sportifs ou autres...
