Reviews
In an era where connections to landscape are being disciplined into increasingly positivist frames, Arcadia Updated offers a lifeline. Fiskevold and Geelmuyden present a vivid reminder of the place of the imagination in the analysis of landscapes, as well as the welcome resuscitation of the concept of narrative. Theoretically rich, and well-supported by a range of case studies, this book has broad appeal for landscape architects and planners from both academic and practice perspectives.

Author Information
Marius Fiskevold received a Cand. Agric. in landscape architecture from the Agricultural University of Norway in 1998. He worked as a landscape designer and planner for a number of consulting companies for 10 years before starting a PhD study, which he finished in 2012 with a thesis entitled ""The road as will and representation: landscape analysis and aesthetic experience"". In addition to his work as a landscape architect and planner, he draws heavily on his long experience with and passion for landscape photography. All the original photographs in this book are his. He now works as a landscape architect at Sweco Norge AS and as an assistant professor at the School of Landscape Architecture at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU). Anne Katrine Geelmuyden received a Cand. Agric. in landscape architecture from the Agricultural University of Norway in 1982. She gained a PhD from the same university in 1989 with a thesis entitled ""Landscape experience and landscape: ideology or critique of ideology?"", an early example of the social constructivist approach in landscape studies, at least within landscape architecture. She works as a professor at NMBU, where she heads the programme board at the School of Landscape Architecture. Her research focuses on the conceptualisation of landscape, landscape aesthetics and landscape criticism.
