Edward Relph
Definition
- Throughout his professional career as a geographer, Edward Relph has explored the nature and importance of places, landscapes, environments, and other taken-for-granted geographical dimensions of peoples’ everyday lives. His books include Place and Placelessness (1976), one of the earliest and most accessible phenomenologies of place; Rational Landscapes and Humanistic Geography (1981), a powerful explication of philosopher Martin Heidegger's notion of appropriation as a potential vehicle for a lived environmental ethic grounded in respect and care for the natural world; and The Modern Urban Landscape (1987), an exploration of why modern cities look the way they do.
