Please not that this list is not comprehensive; It contains some random links and ideas that came up while I built another page. Please come see me if you are having trouble finding related texts - there are lots of directions you can take this topic.
You should also check the Representing People and Landscapes [http://aghslibraryhome.weebly.com/representing-people-and-landscapes.html] page as there is a strong overlap between these topics (esp. the art and poetry sections) .
