borrowed landscapes
Suddenly Something Happened
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beaulieu, Jimmy / Cochrane, Kerryann, PUBLISHER: Bdang, Jimmy Beaulieu is the founder of the publishing house mecanique generale and the author or editor of eight books in French. Suddenly Something Happened is his first book in English and collects the storylines from Quelques Pelures and Le Moral des Troupes (which won the Prix Espoir Quebecois), with a new Epilogue to form the definitive edition of this autobiographical work. Jimmy ponders the difference between living in Quebec City and Montreal with its bohemian nightlife, reminisces about his childhood in a charmingly candid way, shares his frustrations and victories in art and in love, and expresses his philosophy on everything from racism to pop music and from masculinity to the Quebecois identity. Told in richly rendered pencil lines in front of masterfully drawn backdrops portraying Quebec's urban and rural landscapes, these are the complete non-adventures of Jimmy Beaulieu, an easy going artist with an appreciation for the finer things in life-such as the balconies of Montreal in spring time and station wagons with fake wood paneling.
Real Places: An Unconventional Guide to America's Generic
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Clay, Grady, PUBLISHER: University of Chicago Press, In "Real Places," Grady Clay presents the American landscape in a completely fresh and untypical way. Rather than look at locations, he studies constructed, imaginative sites. Clay explores the fascination of "Fall Color Country," or "Lover's Lane." What draws people to these "generic" landscapes and keeps them coming back literally and figuratively time and time again? "Real Places" catalogs and describes a unique cross-section of America, emphasizing the beauty and intrigue of these hidden gems. Heavily illustrated with maps and photographs depicting the everyday as well as the bizarre, Clay's entertaining Baedeker allows us to see in a new way what has always been "right before our eyes." "This book provides a language for the architecture of everyday life."--Ross Miller, "Chicago Tribune" "Spirited observations and capsule histories."--Suzanne Stephens, "New York Times Book Review" "Compelling.... Included here are many nuggets of insight and illumination."--Brad Knickerbocker, "Christian Science Monitor" "An amusing and touching book about the reality we Americans have captured in our language."--"Boston Sunday Globe"

Nature of America
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fortney, Bill / Kuralt, Charles / Middleton, David, PUBLISHER: Amphoto Books, Awe-inspiring landscapes and wildlife fill this treasure trove of North America's natural wonders. This dazzling book captures for the first time in a single volume the astonishing range of ecological diversity stretching across the United States, Canada, and northern Mexico. Recorded on film by 32 of today's greatest nature photographers -- including Frans Lanting, Galen Rowell, David Muench, John Shaw, and Art Wolfe -- America's rich natural heritage includes many of the world's most glorious wilderness regions and refuges. Seen from compelling new perspectives, these areas encompass the famous national parks and lesser-known but equally magical places. Accompanying all the magnificent photographs, which have not been enhanced or manipulated in any way, are brief natural history notes, highlighting what is unique about the scene depicted. Most notable about this book are its images of great open spaces, soaring mountains, rivers, tundra, and seacoasts: poetic and elucidating commentary written from a naturalist's point of view; 220 stunning, full-color photographs: a calendar providing the best dates for visiting and photographing various regions; and the insightful foreword by Charles Kuralt.
Max Ernst and Alchemy: A Magician in Search of Myth
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Warlick, M. E. / Rosemont, Franklin, PUBLISHER: University of Texas Press, Surrealist artist Max Ernst defined collage as the "alchemy of the visual image." Students of his work have often dismissed this comment as simply a metaphor for the transformative power of using found images in a new context. Taking a wholly different perspective on Ernst and alchemy, however, M. E. Warlick persuasively demonstrates that the artist had a profound and abiding interest in alchemical philosophy and often used alchemical symbolism in works created throughout his career. A revival of interest in alchemy swept the artistic, psychoanalytic, historical, and scientific circles of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and Warlick sets Ernst's work squarely within this movement. Looking at both his art (many of the works she discusses are reproduced in the book) and his writings, she reveals how thoroughly alchemical philosophy and symbolism pervade his early Dadaist experiments, his foundational work in surrealism, and his many collages and paintings of women and landscapes, whose images exemplify the alchemical fusing of opposites. This pioneering research adds an essential key to understanding the multilayered complexity of Ernst's works, as it affirms his standing as one of Germany's most significant artists of the twentieth century.
Wild Solutions: How Biodiversity Is Money in the Bank
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beattie, Andrew J. / Ehrlich, Paul R. / Turnbull, Christine, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, We live on an unexplored planet, ignorant of more than eighty percent of the species that share our world. In this fascinating and abundantly illustrated book, two eminent ecologists discuss the biological diversity of the Earth, showing how the natural systems that surround us play an essential role in protecting our basic life-support systems. Andrew Beattie and Paul Ehrlich tell us about the millions of species providing ecosystem services that maintain the quality of our air and water and the fertility of the soil, dispose of domestic, industrial, and agricultural waste, and protect crops from pests. The authors also describe how biological diversity opens the way for new medicines, pharmaceuticals, construction materials and designs, and manufactured goods. They point to innovative industries that harness species for the biological repair of damaged landscapes, biological mining, biological pest control, and biomonitoring of the environment. The organisms upon which these activities are founded -- although often microscopic, obscure, or bizarre -- provide natural capital that is worth infinitely more than anyone has previously guessed. The authors urge us to protect the biological wealth of our Earth and keep it from being destroyed by human activity.
Cadogan Guide Tuscany, Umbria & the Marches
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Facaros, Dana / Pauls, Michael, PUBLISHER: Cadogan Guides, Vacationers have traveled to Tuscany and Umbria for centuries, and visitor figures continue to rise. In this newly revised edition of a Cadogan classic, Italy experts Facaros and Pauls uncover Tuscany's lavish natural beauty and some of the most enchanting landscapes in Europe. The three regions' combination of sheer beauty, wealth, and dastardly doings fired some of the greatest art and literature in the West, by the likes of Dante, Leonardo, Botticelli, and a hundred more. The guide discovers Tuscany, delving into the dense concentration of art that spills out of Florence into Pisa, Lucca, and Arezzo; absorbing the energy of Siena's frenzied Palio; and taking in the sumptuous vineyards of Chianti. It explores the medieval hill towns of green Umbria--historic Perugia over the Tiber Valley, the newly restored monuments and architecture of Assisi, and the famous cathedral of Orvieto. Finally, the unspoiled landscape of the civilized Marches is covered. The region is fast gaining popularity as an alternative to Tuscany and Umbria; unlike other guides, Cadogan explores its bustling, sparkly seaside resort of Rimini. Cadogan not only brings this well-known and popular part of Italy to life, but also puts a new slant on the Leaning Tower and digs up some surprising secret gardens along the way.
The Community Forests of Mexico: Managing for Sustainable
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bray, David Barton / Merino-Perez, Leticia / Barry, Deborah, PUBLISHER: University of Texas Press, Mexico leads the world in community management of forests for the commercial production of timber. Yet this success story is not widely known, even in Mexico, despite the fact that communities around the globe are increasingly involved in managing their own forest resources. To assess the achievements and shortcomings of Mexico's community forest management programs and to offer approaches that can be applied in other parts of the world, this book collects fourteen articles that explore community forest management from historical, policy, economic, ecological, sociological, and political perspectives. The contributors to this book are established researchers in the field, as well as many of the important actors in Mexico's nongovernmental organization sector. Some articles are case studies of community forest management programs in the states of Michoacan, Oaxaca, Durango, Quintana Roo, and Guerrero. Others provide broader historical and contemporary overviews of various aspects of community forest management. As a whole, this volume clearly establishes that the community forest sector in Mexico is large, diverse, and has achieved unusual maturity in doing what communities in the rest of the world are only beginning to explore: how to balance community income with forest conservation. In this process, Mexican communities are also managing for sustainable landscapes and livelihoods.
The Evolving Landscape: Homer Aschmann's Geography
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Aschmann, Homer / Pasqualetti, Martin J. / Jackson, J. B., PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press, "Aschmann was a keen and impassioned observer of the impacts of modern societies on the natural world." -- Karl Butzer, Dickson Centennial Professor of Liberal Arts, University of Kansas, Austin In The Evolving Landscape Martin J. Pasqualetti brings together for the first time the collected writings of one of twentieth-century America's master geographers, Homer Aschmann. Combining encyclopedic knowledge with unquenchable curiosity, Aschmann radiates an obvious affection for being outdoors as he guides us across landscapes to discern the interplay of climate, history, topography, soils, and vegetation. In settings as diverse as Los Angeles, Baja California, Arizona, Paraguay, Chile, Colombia, and the Canary Islands, Aschmann demonstrates the contribution a geographer can make in explaining environmental change. "Aschmann was a master of the geographical art." -- William M. Denevan, Carl O. Sauer Professor Emeritus, University of Wisconsin, Madison "Serious students of the landscape will be startled by how relevant and contemporary these seminal essays remain." -- Richard Francaviglia, Director, Center for Greater Southwestern Studies and the History of Cartography, University of Texas at Arlington "Aschmann's broad perspectives are a fast disappearing form of Geography which we lose at our science's peril." -- Carl L. Johannessen, Professor of Geography, University of Oregon
Mrs. Dalloway
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Woolf, Virginia / Howard, Maureen, PUBLISHER: Harvest Books, This brilliant novel explores the hidden springs of thought and action in one day of a woman's life. Direct and vivid in her account of the details of Clarissa Dalloway's preparations for a party she is to give that evening, Woolf ultimately managed to reveal much more. For it is the feeling behind these daily events that gives Mrs. Dalloway its texture and richness and makes it so memorable. Foreword by Maureen Howard. "Mrs. Dalloway was the first novel to split the atom. If the novel before Mrs. Dalloway aspired to immensities of scope and scale, to heroic journeys across vast landscapes, with Mrs. Dalloway Virginia Woolf insisted that it could also locate the enormous within the everyday; that a life of errands and party-giving was every bit as viable a subject as any life lived anywhere; and that should any human act in any novel seem unimportant, it has merely been inadequately observed. The novel as an art form has not been the same since. "Mrs. Dalloway also contains some of the most beautiful, complex, incisive and idiosyncratic sentences ever written in English, and that alone would be reason enough to read it. It is one of the most moving, revolutionary artworks of the twentieth century." --Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours
Storyville, USA
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Peterson, Dale, PUBLISHER: University of Georgia Press, What is a Storyville? Whether you're in Toast, North Carolina, Monkeys Eyebrow, Kentucky, or Winner, South Dakota, a Storyville is a real town you can find on a map, with a tale behind its quirky name. Covering miles of U.S. roads, Dale Peterson drove with his kids, Britt and Bayne, from Start, Louisiana, to Deadhorse, Alaska, in search of small-town America in the "garage sale of the open highway." Along the way they explored open spaces, wild places, and country back roads and met people who weren't afraid to talk to one another. Together, they discover the sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and zany stories behind nearly sixty small towns, guided by a AAA Road Atlas, expert local storytellers, and lots of curiosity. They dip into Caddo Lake and the everglades of Uncertain, Texas, go a little crazy in Loco, Oklahoma, and learn about bee colonies in Climax, New York. Conversations with townfolk range from the refrigerator at the center of Noodle, Texas, and the hazards of Accident, Maryland, to issues of civil rights, religion, and environmental preservation. Collected here are the landscapes, landmarks, faces, thoughts, and conversations of a sentimental, idiosyncratic, and often hilarious American odyssey. Storyville, USA is a long winding trip into the back roads of the country and a longer one into the hinterland of our own hearts.
Trespass: Living at the Edge of the Promised Land
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Irvine, Amy, PUBLISHER: North Point Press, Trespass is the story of one woman's struggle to gain footing in inhospitable territory. A wilderness activist and apostate Mormon, Amy Irvine sought respite in the desert outback of southern Utah's red-rock country after her father's suicide, only to find out just how much of an interloper she was among her own people. But more than simply an exploration of personal loss, Trespass is an elegy for a dying world, for the ruin of one of our most beloved and unique desert landscapes and for our vanishing connection to it. Fearing what her father's fate might somehow portend for her, Irvine retreated into the remote recesses of the Colorado Plateau--home not only to the world's most renowned national parks but also to a rugged brand of cowboy Mormonism that stands in defiant contrast to the world at large. Her story is one of ruin and restoration, of learning to live among people who fear the wilderness the way they fear the devil and how that fear fuels an antagonism toward environmental concerns that pervades the region. At the same time, Irvine mourns her own loss of wildness and disconnection from spirituality, while ultimately discovering that the provinces of nature and faith are not as distinct as she once might have believed.

Natural Experiments: Ecosystem-Based Management and the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Layzer, Judith A., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Scholars, scientists, and policymakers have hailed ecosystem-based management (EBM) as a remedy for the perceived shortcomings of the centralized, top-down, expert-driven environmental regulatory framework established in the United States in the late s and early s. EBM entails collaborative, landscape-scale planning and flexible, adaptive implementation. But although scholars have analyzed aspects of EBM for more than a decade, until now there has been no systematic empirical study of the overall approach. In "Natural Experiments, " Judith Layzer provides a detailed assessment of whether EBM delivers in practice the environmental benefits it promises in theory. She does this by examining four nationally known EBM initiatives (the Balcones Canyonlands Conservation Program in Austin, Texas, the San Diego Multiple Species Program, the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan, and the California Bay-Delta Program) and three comparison cases that used more conventional regulatory approaches (Arizona's Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan and efforts to restore Florida's Kissimmee River and California's Mono Basin). Layzer concludes that projects that set goals based on stakeholder collaboration, rather than through conventional politics, are less likely to result in environmental improvement, largely because the pursuit of consensus drives planners to avoid controversy and minimize short-term costs. Layzer's resolutely practical focus cuts through the ideological and theoretical arguments for and against EBM to identify strategies that hold genuine promise for restoring the ecological resilience of our landscapes.
Possum Nocturne
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ramspeck, Doug, PUBLISHER: Northshore Press, The poems in Possum Nocturne imbue the physical world with human traits and human consciousness, the speakers imagining the landscapes of their days as alive with portentous meaning. In David Hume wrote in A Natural History of Religion: "There is an universal tendency among mankind to conceive all beings like themselves, and to transfer to every object those qualities with which they are familiarly acquainted, and of which they are intimately conscious. We find human faces in the moon, armies in the clouds... hence the frequency and beauty of the prosopopoeia in poetry, where trees, mountains, and streams are personified." The works in this collection are about animism and superstition, about characters who are convinced that a hoot owl whispers to us, that a black tupelo limb is an augury, that three crows in a black willow tree portend death, that a dry stream bed suggests that a spouse or relative will have a miscarriage, and that we can read our futures in the entrails of a pickerel frog or in a hognose snake skin found draped beside a river bank. Indeed, snakes in these poems often serve as mysteries and occultations. What could be more "other" than a creature without arms or legs, that muscles around on its own belly, that often has vertical slits as pupils, and that sticks out its tongue to "understand" the air? The world for the characters in these poems, then-mostly poems situated in the American Midwest and American South-is alive with its own form of consciousness and secret meanings.

Virginia: A Pictorial Souvenir
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Highsmith, Carol M. / Landphair, Ted, PUBLISHER: Crescent, Virginia, the "Old Dominion" state, is at once timeless and strikingly contemporary. Birthplace of eight of America's presidents, including Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, and home to an impressive array of ultra-modern industries, Virginia is a land of endless variety, beauty, and charm. A state of seeming contradictions--onetime queen of the confederacy yet proud to elect as Governor the grandson of former slaves--Virginia celebrates its vivid and romantic past, while striding towards it future confidently. A land of serenely bucolic landscapes, of fox hunts, debutante cotillions, peaceful plantations, and stately historic tours, Virginia also dazzles with its diversity. Where else can one leave the glistening strand of Virginia Beach for the airy splendor of the Blue Ridge Mountains? What other state boasts both legendary Jamestown--site of England's first permanent colony in the New World--and rustic Chincoteague Island, second home to wild ponies descended from horses that swam to safety after a Spanish galleon sank? Indeed, Virginia is the site of many of America's most famous cultural landmarks and homes--Colonial Williamsburg, Appomattox Court House, and Jefferson's classically proportioned Monticello, just to name a few. "Virginia, A Pictorial Souvenir" is a marvelous photographic portrait that vividly captures this historic state. It guides the reader to such architectural splendors ad Danville's Millionaire's Row with its magnificent Victorian and Edwardian home, and spectacular sites such as the Natural Bridge in the Shenandoah Valley and the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. These images and more make this book a perfect keepsake for anyone acquainted with thetimeless charms of "Old Virginny."
