W.G. Sebald (1944–2001) har länge betraktats som en av de viktigaste författarna kring millennieskiftet, och hans prosa har kommit att inta en alltmer central plats i samtalet om vår tids litteratur. Men det finns också en helt annan sida av hans skrivande, som hittills passerat obemärkt: under nära fyra decennier producerade Sebald dikter. Många trycktes i tidskrifter, andra förblev outgivna fram till efter hans död. Mot slutet av sitt liv inledde han samarbeten med konstnärer, vilket utmynnade i två egenartade diktsamlingar där en tystlåten dialog uppstår mellan ord och bild.Landskapsläsning är en långsam fotvandring i dessa oupptäckta omgivningar, som dröjer vid dikternas minsta detaljer och finner en säregen språklig miljö, rik på talande spår och undflyende innebörder. Genom att rikta uppmärksamheten mot det specifika i Sebalds hantering av den poetiska formen – allt från bildspråk och allusioner till radbrytningar och typografi – tecknar boken en ny bild av ett unikt författarskap.

This book situates the film-maker Patrick Keiller alongside the writers W.G. Sebald and Iain Sinclair as the three leading voices in 'English psychogeography', offering new insights to key works including London, The Rings of Saturn, and Lights Out for the Territory. Excavating social and political contexts while also providing plentiful close analysis, it examines the cultivation of a distinctive 'affective' mode or sensibility especially attuned to the cultural anxieties of the twentieth century's closing decades. Landscape and Subjectivity explores motifs including essayism, the reconciliation of creativity with market forces, and the foregrounding of an often agonised or melancholic. It asks whether the work can, collectively, be seen to constitute a 'critical theory of contemporary space' and suggests that Keiller, Sebald, and Sinclair's contributions represent a highly significant moment in English culture's engagement with landscape, environment, and itself. The book's analyses are fuelled by archival and topographical research and are responsive to various interdisciplinary contexts, including the tradition of the 'English Journey', the set of ideas associated with the 'spatial turn', critical theory, the so-called 'heritage debate', and more recent theorisation of the 'anthropocene'.
