Through an examination of distinct historical periods, this course explores the human narrative of reshaping nature through the practice of what is now Landscape Architecture. This course introduces major histories, theories, and sites guiding Landscape Architecture while questioning the Eurocentric perspective that has framed history�s curation. Students will survey humanity�s redesign of natural surroundings such as fields, groves, avenues, gardens, terraces, coastal restorations, riparian ecological systems, national parks, and urban greenways. Recommended corequisite: LAND 2100.
