花园设计在格鲁吉亚时期发生了巨大的变化-作为财富和地位的象征,地主贵族几十年来一直使用花园。然而,在18世纪,社会开始同质化,城市精英也开始要求景观,将反映他们的立场。贵族和士绅的花园在外观、用途和意义上都不同,尽管在形式上有广泛的相似之处。这背后是地方的重要性,景观本身及其原材料。当时的人经常提到,在创造一个新的设计景观时,需要咨询“地方的天才”,因为花园所在的地方对决定其外观至关重要。土壤类型、地形、供水等天才所在地都影响了这一时期的景观设计。在这本书中采取的方法融合了景观和园林历史,使新的见解景观和设计在十八世纪。斯普纳自己的研究提出了鲜为人知的网站旁边的那些更知名的,并探讨了格鲁吉亚时期的景观设计的故事的复杂性,这通常是过于简化,并减少到几个“伟人”的故事。
Garden design evolved hugely during the Georgian period – as symbols of wealth and stature, the landed aristocracy had been using gardens for decades. Yet during the eighteenth century, society began to homogenise, and the urban elite also started demanding landscapes that would reflect their positions. The gardens of the aristocracy and the gentry were different in appearance, use and meaning, despite broad similarities in form. Underlying this was the importance of place, of the landscape itself and its raw material. Contemporaries often referred to the need to consult the ‘genius of the place’ when creating a new designed landscape, as the place where the garden was located was critical in determining its appearance. Genius loci - soil type, topography, water supply - all influenced landscape design in this period. The approach taken in this book blends landscape and garden history to make new insights into landscape and design in the eighteenth century. Spooner’s own research presents little-known sites alongside those which are more well known, and explores the complexity of the story of landscape design in the Georgian period which is usually oversimplified and reduced to the story of a few ‘great men’.
