"Landscape, Literature and English Religious Culture, 1660-1800" (by Robert Mayhew) is a revisionist account of the intellectual significance of landscape descriptions during the "long" 18th century. Landscape has been a major arena for discussion concerning the manner of 18th century English culture. Mayhew supervises such debates, comments, and elaborates by offering his own relevant opinions. In the book's conclusion, Mayhew hints that 'Landscape description' may in fact illustrate English intellectual life as still being heavily influenced by a Christian and classical mentality in the "long" 18th century.
