While the photo archives bear witness to a bygone era, their depiction of a changing landscape and progressing human interference are still strikingly on topic today. Sometimes showing near-arcadian scenes, the images are nevertheless highly realistic in their exact scientific documentation of the alpine biosphere.
An in-depth introduction by historian and writer Ruedi Weidmann accompanies some ninety exceptional images selected from the comprehensive collection.
Text in English and German.

Condition: Gebraucht, sehr gut. 1. «Dokumentierte Landschaft» ist der siebte Band der Buchreihe Bilderwelten. Er präsentiert die schönsten Aufnahmen aus den Bildbeständen des Geobotanischen Instituts Rübel und aus dem Nachlass von Carl Schröter im Bildarchiv der ETH-Bibliothek in Zürich. Das von Eduard Rübel (1876?1960) 1918 in Zürich gegründete und später der ETH gestiftete Institut erforschte pionierhaft die botanische Artenvielfalt. Rübels Lehrer, der Botaniker und ETH-Professor Carl Schröter (1855?1939), war ein Pionier des Arten- und Landschaftsschutzes. Rübel und Schröter setzten die Fotografie zur wissenschaftlichen Dokumentation wie auch zur Verbreitung ihrer Forschung und zur Popularisierung des Umweltschutzes ein. Die Bilder zeugen von einer untergegangenen Welt und haben dennoch einen überaus starken Aktualitätsbezug. Sie entführen in eine entrückt wirkende und zugleich höchst reale, da naturwissenschaftlich exakt dokumentierte Landschaft, begleitet von einem ausführlicher Einführungsessay.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Documented Landscape features images from the archives of Geobotanical Institute Rübel and of Carl Schröter (1855-1939), both kept in the collections of ETH Zurich's main library. Eduard Rübel (1876-1960) and Schröter, the former's teacher at ETH Zurich, were pioneers of the preservation of biodiversity and landscapes and among the first botanists to use photography as means of documentation for their research. Their heritage, depicting changing landscapes and the progressing human interference with nature, remain topical until the present day. In this book, the images are complemented by an introductory essay by historian and writer Ruedi Weidmann. Seller Inventory # 9783858816375
