Abstract |
---|
Biofilie je pojem, který navrhl Edward Wilson (1984). Vyjadřuje geneticky zakódovanou lidskou potřebu spojovat se s přírodou, či obecněji, vyjadřuje tíhnutí k životu. Biofilie neznamená tedy pouze lásku k přírodě, jejím opakem není biofobie. Lidé všech historických dob a kultur tíhnou ke krajině lesostepi, v níž se vyvinul druh Humo sapiens. Náš vztah ke krajině se vztahuje ke dvěma vlastnostem: čitelnosti a tajemnosti krajiny |
Abstract (in English) |
---|
Biophilia is a term coined by Edward Wilson (1984). It expresses a fundamental, genetically based human need and propensity to affiliate with life, with nature. Biophilia as a general affiliation with nature is not a contradiction to biophobia. We can see both positive and negative biophilia. Humans across most societies prefer landscapes that fit patterns laid down deep in human history on the savannas, with the presence of typical trees. This bias does exist even in the absence of direct experience. There are two basic features of biophilia attitudes toward landscape: legibility and mystery. Both are also important for defining our preferences of the type of forest and trees. Besides biophilia there are two other strong influences shaping our attitudes toward nature/forest: social construction of the symbolic dimension of nature/forest, and the dimension of scientific knowledge. |
