几个世纪以来,风景一直是定义英式英语的核心。大卫·马特莱斯认为,风景一直是英国人对过去、现在和未来的愿景在关于国家认同、历史和现代性的争论以及公民身份和身体的理想的辩论中相遇的地方。风景和英国性被广泛地描绘和利用了广泛的素材--地形指南、健康手册、绘画、诗歌、建筑论战、摄影、自然指南和小说。作者首先考察了两次世界大战之间的时期,展示了围绕乡村建筑、城市重新规划以及休闲和公民文化的辩论,英国人和风景既是现代的也是传统的,城市和乡村的,进步的和保护主义的愿景是如何形成的。最后,他追溯到今天的风景和英国化的故事,展示了人们熟悉的关于风景和遗产的辩论术语是如何立即成为战后时代的产物,并询问当前关于环境保护或国家表达的争论如何与早期的历史和地理产生共鸣。
Landscape has been central to definitions of Englishness for centuries. David Matless argues that landscape has been the site where English visions of the past, present and future have met in debates over questions of national identity, disputes over history and modernity, and ideals of citizenship and the body. Landscape and Englishness is extensively illustrated and draws on a wide range of material - topographical guides, health manuals, paintings, poetry, architectural polemic, photography, nature guides and novels. The author first examines the inter-war period, showing how a vision of Englishness and landscape as both modern and traditional, urban and rural, progressive and preservationist, took shape around debates over building in the countryside, the replanning of cities, and the cultures of leisure and citizenship. He concludes by tracing out the story of landscape and Englishness down to the present day, showing how the familiar terms of debate regarding landscape and heritage are a product of the immediate post-war era, and asking how current arguments over care for the environment or expressions of the nation resonate with earlier histories and geographies.
