Solutions require more than an awareness of ‘natural surroundings’ and human destructiveness. We think in terms of the re-conceptualization, re-design and re-negotiation of space. The book is concerned with social practices, belief systems, urban designs, the organization and representation of landscapes and modes of living. These aspects of ‘spatiality’ suggest how to conceive and practice the intermingling of nature and culture and how to develop public commitment to such practices. In the process we show how concern for the environment as an aspect of space helps us to reconceive and reinterpret what it means to be human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction Reconsidering Environment: Spatial Contexts and the Development of the Environmental Humanities, Mark Luccarelli and Sigurd Bergmann  I: Lived Spaces \u0026amp; Political Contexts Strindberg’s Modern Ecological Subject: “Swedish Nature” Viewed From a Train, Linda Haverty Rugg The Romance of Reinhabitation: Jack London and Knut Hamsun, Peter Mortensen A Cosmopolitan Sense of Place, Carmen Flys Junquera Hannah Arendt on Transcendence in the Public Sphere, Firmin DeBrabander “City Creeks: Lessons in Sustainable Environmental Discourse from a Florida Boom Town”, Thomas Hallock Allotment and Community Gardens: Commons in German Cities, Werner Bigell  II: Reconceiving Environmental Space  Natural or Political Public Space?
