Students learn about the significance of landscape in the field of cultural studies.

Terms such as culture and landscape are clarified as well as the role of human beings who engage with landscape, rework it, appropriate it and contest it.

In other words it is made clear that landscape is never passive, but always part of the way in which identities are created and disputed.

Emphasis is given on the way people perceive landscape through art, literature and music, establishing therefore an interdisciplinary approach to the understanding of identity.
