This project will outline the historical development of the theme park, evaluating the significance of the growing interest in theme park cultures in recent years. The formal connections between theme parks and earlier C16th and C17th theatrical spectacles, and garden and villa designs will be of primary focus. In returning to these earlier historical sources, it is proposed that we are returning to a culture of the baroque (and its delight in spectacular spaces). In turn, the social and cultural implications of such a return will be a central concern.

该项目将概述主题公园的历史发展，评估近年来对主题公园文化日益增长的兴趣的重要性。主题公园与早期C16和C17戏剧奇观之间的正式联系，以及花园和别墅设计将成为主要焦点。在回到这些早期的历史来源时，我们建议我们回到巴洛克文化（及其对壮观空间的喜爱）。反过来，这种返回的社会和文化影响将是一个中心问题。
