With a history that extends back to ancient times, melancholy has hovered at the edges of the appreciation of landscape, including the aesthetic exertions of the eighteenth-century. Implicated in the more formal categories of the Sublime and the Picturesque, melancholy captures the subtle condition of beautiful sadness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book proposes a range of conditions which are conducive to melancholy, and presents examples from each, including: The Void, The Uncanny, Silence, Shadows and Darkness, Aura, Liminality, Fragments, Leavings, Submersion, Weathering and Patina. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacky Bowring\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138588768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138588769\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.42d","brand":"Jacky Bowring","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43924201275647,"sku":"9781138588769","price":56.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a361c9aa-de62-4be7-b683-a30c4ed1d048.jpg?v=1681069071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/melancholy-and-the-landscape-jacky-bowring-9781138588769","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
