David Lowenthal was well known for his historical and geographical contribution to conservation and environmental thinking, his understanding and appreciation of landscape, and his critical public and scholarly contribution to heritage debates as a founder of heritage studies. He was a public intellectual and academic scholar, who worked with scholars and practitioners as well as within public fora. His contribution can only be fully grasped in the light of his research and his practical and political engagement with islands, particularly Caribbean islands as a geographer, historian, and scholarly activist. This engagement with material islands was also linked to his more abstract concern with the archipelagic quality of knowledge as it straddles the humanities and natural sciences. Of importance was furthermore his felt need to engage actively in both public and scholarly debates deriving from his family’s background in law, public service, and social activism. The integrated chapters in this book, authored by prominent scholars, together illuminate the many facets of Lowenthal’s biography and written works. With an updated Editor’s introduction and a new afterword by Charles Saumarez Smith, this book will interest students, scholars, and academics in Landscape and Planning, Heritage Studies, Conservation History, and Caribbean Studies. The book was originally published as a special issue in Landscape Research.

Studies in Contemporary and Historical Archaeology 3 This study uses the perspectives of what might be termed the 'empirical tradition' of British landscape archaeology that developed in the 1960s and 1970s, especially in industrial archaeology, to explore the early modern history of the 'garden' landscapes formed by British colonialism in the eastern Caribbean, and their place in the world. It presents a detailed chronological sequence of the changing material conditions of these English-/British-owned plantation landscapes during the 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries, with particular reference to the origins, history and legacies of the sugar industry. The study draws together the results of archaeological fieldwork and documentary research to present a progressive account of the historical landscapes of the islands of St Kitts and St Lucia: sketching a chronological outline of landscape change. This approach to landscape is characterised by the integration of archaeological field survey, standing buildings recording alongside documentary and cartographic sources, and focuses upon producing accounts of material change to landscapes and buildings. By providing a long-term perspective on eastern Caribbean colonial history: from the nature of early, effectively prehistoric contact and interaction in the 16th century, through early permanent European settlements and into the developed sugar societies of the 18th and 19th centuries, the study suggests a temporal and thematic framework of landscape change that might inform the further development of historical archaeology in the island Caribbean region. The broader aim of the study relates to exploring how archaeological techniques can be used to contribute a highly detailed, empirical case study to the interdisciplinary study of postcolonial landscapes and British colonialism. In order to achieve this goal, the study draws upon the techniques of what has been called the 'empirical tradition' of landscape archaeology.

"Enlisting works by Mark Twain and Willa Cather, as well as noncanonical sources, such as private journals, Daehnke examines the manner in which the imagery of the human figure at work and play in the frontier landscape participated in the nationalist, "civilizing" project of westward expansion. While acknowledging the growing secularization of American life, Daehnke surveys the continuing claims of the Christian redemptive scheme as a powerful symbolic domain for these writers' reflections on social progress and the potential for human perfectibility in the landscapes of the West."--Jacket.
