This survey course focuses on the history of landscapes in the pre-industrialized world. Landscapes will be considered as an evolving condition, even when their defining characteristics were conceived and built at a specific point in time. Critical to this course will be the establishment of frameworks for historical inquiry, the refinement of research methodologies, in the development of multiple perspectives through which to question and understand the design environment.

This course is recommended for NCSS concentrators.

Offered as LAEL-1044 and LDAR-1044.

Majors are pre-registered for this course by the department. Preference is given to Landscape Architecture Students.
