This binomial cultural-religious manifestation consists of an after Christmas seasonal Catholic popular festivity, which is permeated with Christian rites, beliefs and memories. ‘Giros of Folias’ are, therefore, collective walks practiced by specific fancily-dressed festive groups. Symbolically, ‘giros’ means the Christ walks, and ‘Folias’ represents the ‘Three Kings celebration’. The research has its conceptual and theoretical approaches within the Cultural Geography realm. It seeks to have readings on the meanings of these expressions of popular culture. The ‘Folias de Reis’ produce "inscriptions" in space and time (territory, territoriality, identity), which become part of symbolic landscapes. The territorial relations and symbolic landscapes produced by the ‘Folias de Reis’, even within different realities and contexts, do not have their essence, such as devotion and tradition, changed. These festive groups adapt themselves, or have physical and structural modifications, depending on the situation in which they become part of, but their devotion gets strengthened every time they practice the ‘Giros’. The theoretical and methodological aspects used in the research are based, but not limited to, on the contributions of Adams (2005, 2006, 2010) who debates the territorial relations within the Cultural Geography domain; on the work of Geertz (2001), who addresses conceptual approaches related to ‘culture’; on the insights of Hobsbawm (1997) who provides a reflection on two types of tradition: real and invented one; and, on the work of Cosgrove (2004), who discusses the symbolic landscapes and its reading. For this investigation, the used methodological procedures and tools were: literature review, documented material, fieldwork, maps production, and data analysis. The findings reveal that the “Folia de Reis” entails a festivity replete with social relations which, per se, put in evidence – during the “Giros” - , a symbolic universe composed of rural elements, but, in this particular case, celebrated in an urban environment. The territorialities and cultural landscapes are then produced during the festival with the songs and the hospitality of the festive groups, and it is an event which takes place cyclically according to a Christmas event calendar of Goiania. / permeada de ritos, crenças e lembranças. A presente investigação, apoiada na abordagem da geografia cultural, tem como objetivo analisar as territorialidades que emergem pelas relações estabelecidas nos “giros”, apresentações e encontros de Folias de Reis na cidade de Goiânia, bem como obter uma leitura dos significados destas como manifestação e expressão da cultura popular. As Folias de Reis produzem “marcas” no espaço-tempo (território, territorialidades, identidades) que se configuram em paisagens simbólicas. As relações territoriais e as paisagens simbólicas produzidas pelas Folias de Reis, mesmo em diferentes realidades, não modificam sua essência de devoção e tradição. Esses grupos se adaptam ou sofrem modificações físicas e estruturais de acordo com a situação em que se inserem, mas o sentido devocional se mantém e se fortalece a cada cantoria. Os aspectos teórico-metodológicos utilizados no desenvolvimento desta têm como base, entre outras, às contribuições de Almeida (2005; 2006; 2010), que discute relações territoriais no âmbito da geografia cultural; de Geertz (2001), o qual aborda questões conceituais referentes à cultura; de Hobsbawn (1997), com uma reflexão acerca da tradição genuína e inventada; e de Cosgrove (2004), que discute as paisagens simbólicas e sua leitura. Utilizou-se, como procedimentos metodológicos, levantamento bibliográfico, pesquisa documental, trabalho de campo, tratamento de dados, produção de mapas, entre outros. Conclui-se que a Folia de Reis consiste em uma festa permeada de relações sociais que evidenciam, durante os “giros”, um universo simbólico dotado de elementos rurais no meio urbano da Capital. São nas celebrações, cantorias e na hospitalidade dos foliões, que são produzidas pelas folias, as territorialidades e as paisagens culturais presentes no calendário festivo do ciclo natalino da cidade.

Prairie of mine(s): engaging with the remnants of extractive processes

Baxter, Shannon D. 15 September 2008 (has links)
Prairie of Mine(s) explores the incorporation of cultural and historical elements within the reclamation of a post-industrial mining landscape in the South Saskatchewan prairie. Reclamation solely by ecological methods often fails to recognize the industrial processes and people that altered the landscape. This project utilizes experiential, cultural, and historical elements within the reclamation of mining lands to shed light on a part of our history that is frequently overlooked and draw attention to actions made on the earth everyday in order for us to live comfortably. / October 2008

Landscape Archaeology And Its Approach To Cultural Heritage Management: The Troad As A Case Study

Koru, Gulsun 01 January 2010 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis tries to define &lsquo / landscape archaeology&rsquo / as a concept / it describes and analyzes the key landscape archaeology types, dynamics, and approaches. Then, it aims to define the landscape archaeological characteristics of the Troad Region in this context. The archaeological landscape character of the Troad Region shapes the importance of the area, not only for the Anatolian culture, but also for the European cultures and for archaeology discipline. Hence, the necessity of conservation works for the area with the horizon of this concept gains importance. Thesis defines what had been done for the area in terms of conservation and reviews the Long Term Development Plan prepared for the Troia Historical National Park Area. With a critical view of what has been done and what has not been done, it tries to emphasize the importance of grasping the landscape archaeological character of the area in conservation and management plan works. It gives a general guideline to ensure a sustainable future for the historic, cultural, social, economic and environmental nature and qualities of these kinds of areas.

The Role Of Cultural Route Planning In Cultural Heritage Conservation The Case Of Central Lycia

Karatas, Esra 01 September 2011 (has links) (PDF)
The main subject of the thesis is planning &ldquo / cultural routes&rdquo / as a method for conservation of cultural and natural heritage areas at regional scale. Defining a framework of conceptual principles which should be considered in spatial planning of cultural routes and regional networks constitutes the major aim of the thesis. Within the scope of the study, a new developing concept recently, cultural routes are discussed as a tool for sustaining historic and local values of rural and archaeological landscapes. In this respect, the study is structured in two main parts. Firstly, conceptual background on the issue is discussed as the development of cultural route concept, definitions declared by international organizations working on the issue and principles of route planning. Secondly, based on the conceptual research, basic concepts and principles for route planning process is discussed through a case study. The case study for the thesis is selected as the Kas- Kekova region in Antalya, known as the Central Lycia in antiquity. Depending on the assessment of region&rsquo / s cultural landscape, the study is resulted by description of a spatial and conceptual framework for planning of a cultural route network in the region. Through areas rich in cultural and natural heritage, planning routes and networks at regional scale could be used as an effective tool for presenting and sustaining multivalent character of the place, and leading economic sectors which have effect on heritage.

Historische Kulturlandschaftselemente Sachsens

Thiem, Korinna, Bastian, Olaf 10 November 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Historische Kulturlandschaftselemente prägen die regionaltypische Vielfalt und Eigenart der Kulturlandschaft. Insbesondere die biotischen Elemente haben als Zeugen oder Relikte traditioneller Landnutzungen eine hohe Bedeutung für die Biodiversität. In dem Bericht werden 16 biotische historische Kulturlandschaftselemente wie Alleen, Extensiväcker, Gruben, Hecken, Hohlwege, Teiche, Streuobstwiesen und Weinberge beschrieben. Dargestellt wird, wie die Elementtypen historisch entstanden sind, welche Ausprägungen historisch typisch sind, welche Funktionen sie früher hatten, ob und wie sich diese Funktionen gewandelt haben, welche Bedeutung sie für den Arten- und Biotopschutz haben und wie sie erhalten, geschützt und gepflegt werden können. Die Beschreibung ergänzt die als Heft 33/2012 in der Schriftenreihe erschienene Studie »Historische Kulturlandschaften Sachsens«.

The Chinese view of nature : tourism in China's scenic and historic interest areas

Han, Feng January 2006 (has links)
Tourism has greatly increased world wide in recent decades, especially in China. Nature-dominated Scenic and Historic Interest Areas, representative of the Chinese philosophy of the 'oneness of nature and human beings', are the most popular tourism destinations in China. Tourism impacts in these areas have been receiving the attention of heritage landscape conservation. Management actions have largely been determined with an emphasis on natural values. This thesis maintains that values relating to nature are socially and culturally constructed, and that they dynamically change through history. By investigating the social and cultural structures underpinning values related to nature, a macro-history method has been applied to explore the traditional Chinese View of nature from traditional Chinese philosophies and landscape cultures. An instrumental case study method has been applied to explore the contemporary Chinese values of nature. The relationships between traditional values and contemporary values have been identified. It was found that the traditional Chinese values still have a profound influence today, although many aspects have been distorted. Historic high culture in natural areas has been replaced by mass tourism culture and Western values. The research also found that today's values are more socially and politically contested. It has been revealed that there are deep social, cultural, economic and political roots underlying heritage conservation management actions. Changing and contested values have been interpreted from these perspectives. The values inherent in the Chinese View of nature, such as holistic philosophical perspectives, sophisticated Chinese landscape languages, and evolving living landscapes, have been identified. The contributions of these values to relevant theories of environmental philosophy, cultural landscape, national park tourism and heritage conservation have been identified by this research. The implications for multi-cultural dialogues in heritage landscape conservation have been addressed.

Analýza vývojových změn land-use podhůří Šumavy / The Analysis of land-use changes in Šumava foothills

KOTEK, Jiří January 2012 (has links)
The Svatý Tomáš Highlands and the Trojmezí Highlands in the Šumava foothills were constantly settled during 13th century. Although this area is a borderland with a less favourable climate, agriculture had a significant influence on the landscape changes. However political and economic changes during the 1950´s, especially the establishment of the Iron Curtain, had impacted previous trends. Displacement of inhabitans, destruction of villages and inaccessibility of the area have restored the natural processes. The aim of this work is to describe changes of land use in The Šumava foothills with regard to nature protection and results evaluated by geographic information system technologies. From stable cadastre maps it was detected, that land use in 1st half of 19th century in the Šumava foothills was very varied, it was there existed a lot of small fields of arable soil. However the surface of arable soil diminished gradually during the time and at the present time don´t exist any more in the study area. In monitored areas in the first place grew the share of forests. The changes of management also had an impact on the size of succession areas. It was found, that changes in land use are very similar in the all monitored regions.
