Omschrijving
Samenvatting:"Landscape" is a cultural construct that has developed into a polysemic concept. It is the result of a double process of anthropization, that is, the societies’ impact on biophysical environment, on the one hand, and the cultural construction of “landscape” notion, on the other (Bertrand, 2008). Therefore, the concept has an ambiguity that makes it a powerful tool for the analysis of complex processes and contemporary phenomena. At the same time, understanding its wider meaning requires taking into consideration the notions of "cultural landscape", "landscape archeology" and "landscape ecology", as they have resulted into specific methodological traditions. In this article, a bibliographic review is done in order to understand the evolution of the concept in the scientific, institutional and artistic spheres. This also helps us understand the differences and similarities between the notions of "landscape" and "cultural landscape", as well as the importance of a number of documents, made for patrimonial conservation purposes, in the definition of both terms
