Landscape appreciation
Landscape assessment is a term that was sometimes used to be used for purely visual assessment, but it now has a much wider meaning(s). There have been various attempts to identify a term that unambiguously addresses the visual/sensory quality of landscape. In the 1970s it was usually 'landscape evaluation', but now that too has a much wider meaning. Also it was a bit pseudo-science in attempting to be objective about a subject that is essentially subjective, even though surveys could suggest the reactions of a majority or at least a large proportion of 'observers'. So when I published on the history of the subject since the 1960s I used the term 'landscape appreciation', much more appropriate now that we are all supposed to be enactive beings. The book was David Jacques, 'Landscape appreciation: theories since the cultural turn' (Chichester: Michael Packard Publishing, 2019) reviewed by Mara Miller in the Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism 81 (1):113-116 (2023) https://academic.oup.com/jaac/article/81/1/113/6964459 2.139.197.58 (talk) 21:25, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
