Needless to say, that the readings and meanings of ‘the forest’ are rather extensive. I spoke about this piece in the Simon Schama program on Romanticism very much from the angle of post-war Germany and appropriations during and after WW2, looking at Norther European traditions. The forests have been interpreted in terms of culture and tradition, fairy tales, sexuality, environmentalism, romanticism, the sublime, myths etc, Ref: The Romantics and Us [Ep. 3], BBC2 series on the Romantics by Simon Schama, Director, Hugo Macgregor, producer, Emilia Chodorowska, BBC2.
