Description
Since the 1960s, England's connection with the environment has played a significant role in shaping its national identity. This book explores how English cultures of nature, land and farming have influenced contemporary debates over land and culture.
From agriculture to leisure, climate change, folklore, archaeology, and the mystical, David Matless examines the genealogies behind today's environmental concerns. He reveals how government policy, popular music, and television comedy have contributed to the richness and complexity of English environmental culture.
This book uncovers the ways in which England's relationship with the natural world has evolved over the past sixty years, shedding light on the anxieties and debates that continue to shape our understanding of land and culture today.
