Landscape, memory, and oral tradition

By Rafael de Souza Dias

In recent decades, there has been significant progress in the development of new technologies that allow us to identify the environmental conditions of a given location. While these new tools make undeniable contributions to environmental studies, they also undermine what environmental education has sought to achieve in recent years: the recovery and appreciation of human experience in identifying environmental changes over time and space. This book deals with the contributions of the memory and experience of elderly subjects in the assessment of environmental impacts and their relationship with the environment, understanding the environmental issue as a reflection on time as well. Oral history, as a methodology, can be used to capture life experiences, knowing that interviews about childhood, work, and civic life involve, in themselves, the "environmental" theme, revealing the historical dimension of the facts and expanding the possibilities for state intervention.
