Abstract

Studenter och yrkesutövare i landskapsarkitektur blir tidigt bekantade med termer som genius loci - ”platsens själ” men ofta utan vidare betraktelse. Finns det något som ”meningsfull” plats? Kan en plats betyda eller representera något? Vad har ett ord som meningsfull för konnotationer i skapade eller naturliga rum? Denna uppsats redogör en fördjupning i ämnet meningsfullhet - besjälade platser i landskapsarkitektur där uppsatsförfattaren blickar in i andra författares föreställningar om meningsfullhet i landskap och trädgårdar, samt redogör tretton besökares varseblivningar av en specifik plats – Alnarps västerskog i Lomma, Skåne.

This paper seeks to explore the semantic domain in landscape architecture. Students and practitioners in landscape architecture are generally introduced to the term genius loci or ‘the spirit of place’ and in most cases without further evaluation. Can places imbue meaning? If, so, how is it emphasized? What connotations are entwined with the word meaningful associated with designed or natural places? What do people say? What do the experts say? The paper will highlight some contemporary debates on landscapes, gardens and meaning and also thirteen interviews with visitors of a specific place - Alnarp västerskog, part of the landscape laboratory of the Swedish University of Agricultural sciences in southern Sweden.
