Abstract:

Abstract This essay argues that the aesthetic category named the picturesque was first systematized in a Welsh colonial context and that picturesque looking always reflects, to some degree, its initially imperialist function. While the picturesque rapidly acceded to a preeminent place in British travel and landscape writing, its rise was contested by Welsh and working-class writers like the antiquarian poet Richard Llwyd (1752–1835). By conspicuously failing to impose picturesque features on a carefully historicized landscape, Llwyd’s poem Beaumaris Bay (1800) lays bare the picturesque’s antih

Abstract:

This thesis examines and contextualises historically significant aspects of the ways in which David Roberts’ lucrative lithographic publication Egypt and Nubia (1846-49) represented the “Orient”. The analysis demonstrates that Roberts used tropes, particularly ruins and dispossessed figures, largely derived from a revised version of British picturesque landscape art, in order to depict Egypt as a developmentally poor state. By establishing how this imagery was interpreted in the context of the early Victorian British Empire, the thesis offers an elucidation of the connection between British im

Abstract:

This study addresses the development of the English suburb in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. Its proposition is that suburbs were where people wanted to live, and not just to avoid the dirt and disease of the city. They had an appeal beyond the practical. Whether it was a feeling of security, independence, oneness with nature, or of living in 'a place apart', there was an emotional, culturally-conditioned attraction. The specific focus is on the development of the Calverley estate in Tunbridge Wells. The point is not that Calverley was typical, but that it represented a suburban

Abstract:

This thesis explores aesthetic representation in Australian and Canadian nature writing from the turn of the twenty-first century to the present day. I analyse nine representative texts to explore the relationship between aesthetic representation of the so-called natural environment and the texts’ central themes, which I identify as (i) belonging (in place) (ii) digging (uncovering colonial history), (iii) walking (pilgrimage), and (iv) working (ecological rehabilitation). In connection with each theme, I examine how the environment is perceived, how notions of aesthetic value are constructed

Abstract:

This research project is concerned with the way in which nature is idealised through images, and questions how painting might be able to address this using visual strategies borrowed from the 18th Century aesthetic traditions of the Picturesque. Contemporary popular landscape images, often photographs, present an ideal of nature that is vast, nurturing and self-sustaining. To submit to this ideal, though enjoyable, is to overlook the lived reality of nature in all its extremes as well as the cultural and environmental problems linked to idealised views of nature.

Abstract:

In recent years the history of the garden has enjoyed increased attention within scholarly circles. Of particular interest is the history of the formation of the Picturesque garden. The ideas of three men, Richard Payne Knight, Uvedale Price, and Humphry Repton, are central to the evolution of Picturesque theory as related to the garden. The conflict among them has become known as the Picturesque Controversy. Due to misguided interpretations by modern scholars, however, the essence of the dispute has been obscured. Through a discussion of the development of Picturesque theory and a comparison

The aim of this thesis is to elucidate the relationship between the picturesque and the emergence of British national identity. It explores Scottish travel writings from the 1770s to the early nineteenth century, in order to examine the ways in which tourists employ the discourse of the picturesque to imagine the British nation. The introduction sets out the questions this thesis attempts to address and defines the scope of discussion. It also outlines the general arguments surrounding the picturesque and specifies the way in which picturesque descriptions of Scotland during the period will be

Sidney K. Robinson’s 1988 essay, The Picturesque: Sinister Dishevelment, critically reframes the English Picturesque through the social and political implications of compositional strategies and mechanisms used for landscape design. Most critically, Robinson identifies sinister qualities of the Picturesque in the hidden power, or power in reserve, that gentlemanly landscape designers used to create scenes in the landscape that only they could discern as having been either labored upon or the result of natural decay.

The appearance of ecological landscape design often causes public dissatisfaction. Precedent texts and studies, especially in the landscape perception and design fields, reiterated the affection for the ‘picturesque’ and the ‘park-like’ landscape of most Americans, resulting in their resistance to the ‘messiness’ of ecological landscapes. This research, therefore, studied how Thais perceive and respond to the look of the landscape, investigating if the ‘picturesque’ and the ‘messiness’ play a role in their perception and appreciation of ecological urban park design in the country.
