Baroque Garden Cultures - Emulation, Sublimation, Subversion

Klappentext Composed of papers given at the 25th Dumbarton Oaks Colloquium on the History of Landscape Architecture! this volume examines gardens from twelfth-century China and western and northern Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. While these gardens were created in drastically different places and times! they may share a similar role in forming culture unintended by their designers. This volume looks at the changing reception of gardens long after they were designed! including the reception of historical gardens by contemporary tourists and art critics.
