This workshop aims to explore the temporal dimension of landscapes through various disciplinary perspectives. This reflection stems from the need to interpret the concepts of change and permanence \u2013 both central to landscape studies \u2013 in light of contemporary \u201caccelerations\u201d, such as climate change and rapidly shifting geopolitical dynamics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What lasts for a long time and what changes rapidly are recorded in landscape; they are the result of the intersection of different time scales of the phenomena. The analysis of landscape imagery and representations encourages a forward-looking approach, linked to modes of communication and narration, and proves valuable for addressing current challenges. However, the temporal dimension will not only be considered towards the future but will also be addressed in the past: how scholars and society were thinking about the future of landscapes in the past.\u00a0\u00a0In this sense, past, present, and future are not isolated, but rather interconnected dimensions that can be jointly examined in landscape studies. This integrated approach contributes to a deeper understanding of landscapes themselves, as well as of the spatial, social and cultural phenomena with which they are intertwined. The temporal dimension encompasses both the material and immaterial aspects of landscapes and shapes the evolving relationships between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
