Description:

What exactly is a landscape biography? What does it constitute? In a contemporary study of landscape biographies, the starting points and the limits to the story are explored and tested using a myriad of definitions and approaches. Is a landscape biography just an account of a specific and defined place on the face of this planet Earth, set in a defined period of time or does it have a practical purpose? Is it possible to design the future of our landscapes by a re-telling of the past? These questions are answered through an exploration of Vooremaa, the land of the drumlins, a specific region of Eastern Estonia. This landscape biography weaves together a tale based on archaeology, maps, environmental data, and folk stories. Come with us as we explore the land of the drumlins.
