Course for curious students connected to nature, who would like to learn more about one of the basic issues in geography, i.e. the relationship between the humanity and geographical environment, particularly the landscape. How has the relationship between the humanity and biosphere changed during time? What is the landscape aesthetics and environmental ethics? How did an abiotic basis of our landscape develop? How did the geographical environment develop during the Quaternary? How did the cultivated, designed and remoulded landscapes develop since the early Middle Ages until now? Which processes did play the role? Which problems do we see in the current interaction between the humanity and its environment (agriculture, forestry, tourism, transport)? What does the coexistence of humans and nature in specific landscapes (mountains, karst, floodplains) look like? These are the main topics of the course, which consists of lectures, seminars and a field trip. The field trip lasts for 5 days, demands for a certain fitness (mountain terrain) and the subject matter presented during lectures is demonstrated at suitable sites practically.
