KNOWING WHERE TO STAND WEBSITE
BOOKS: THE
LANGUAGE OF LANDSCAPE Anne Whiston Spirn Thank you for visiting Knowing Where to Stand. This website draws from my book, The Language of Landscape (Yale University Press, 1998) and from The Eye Is a Door, a book-in-progress. The Language of Landscape argues that landscape is a form of language with its own grammar and metaphors and that all can learn to read landscape and to cultivate the power of landscape expression. The Eye Is a Door is a call for visual literacy and a guide. Essays of photographs and words explore seeing as a way of knowing and photography as a way of thinking.
