Proposals are invited for a panel that will focus on "reading" eighteenth-century landscapes, both real and imagined, as they are represented in literature, art, travel narratives, landscape theories, or other fields. Interpretation of these landscapes may take into consideration: class and gender:, European lenses through which colonial landscapes are written and imagined; landscapes and nation-building; the enjoyment of landscape through a "Claude glass"; theories of the picturesque; the work of prominent landscape gardeners, such as Capability Brown and others; literary landscapes, such as Julie's Elysee in Rousseau's La nouvelle Heloise, or the spatial arrangement of Sarah Scott's Milennium Hall; Gothic landscapes; vedute; as well as the landscape paintings of Constable, Gainsborough, Fragonard, and others. American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies, San Antonio TX, 22-25 March 2012.
