Zusammenfassung: | More so than other Europeans, the English have turned to their gardens or wooded "wildernesses" for contemplative consolation. To explore the meditative aspect of English garden-making, David Coffin combines selected poetry, diary extracts, letters, and more formal writing from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries with charming illustrations and his own perceptive commentary The English saw the impermanence of life in "weather-beaten heads" of flowers that "not seun dayes before had flourished in their full prime," and their gardens were often decorated with sundials and ruins. Addressing not only admirers of the English garden but students of English cultural history more generally, Coffin shows that the English emphasis on transience was a key to their gardening and their literary style |

Ill. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier More so than other Europeans, the English have turned to their gardens or wooded "wildernesses" for contemplative consolation. To explore the meditative aspect of English garden-making, David Coffin combines selected poetry, diary extracts, letters, and more formal writing from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries with charming illustrations and his own perceptive commentary The English saw the impermanence of life in "weather-beaten heads" of flowers that "not seun dayes before had flourished in their full prime," and their gardens were often decorated with sundials and ruins. Addressing not only admirers of the English garden but students of English cultural history more generally, Coffin shows that the English emphasis on transience was a key to their gardening and their literary style Geschichte 1700-1800 Geschichte 1600-1700 Geschichte 1600-1800 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1500-2000 gnd rswk-swf Begrafenissen gtt Constructions de jardins - Angleterre - Histoire - 17e siècle Constructions de jardins - Angleterre - Histoire - 18e siècle Engels gtt Jardins - Angleterre - Histoire - 17e siècle Jardins - Angleterre - Histoire - 18e siècle Jardins - Aspect symbolique - Angleterre - Histoire - 17e siècle Jardins - Aspect symbolique - Angleterre - Histoire - 18e siècle Jardins anglais - Histoire - 17e siècle Jardins anglais - Histoire - 18e siècle Letterkunde gtt Meditatie gtt Tuinen gtt Englisch Geschichte Literatur Garden structures England History 17th century Garden structures England History 18th century Gardens Symbolic aspects England History 17th century Gardens Symbolic aspects England History 18th century Gardens England History 17th century Gardens England History 18th century Gardens, English History 17th century Gardens, English History 18th century Martyrium (DE-588)4168985-9 gnd rswk-swf Grabmal (DE-588)4021732-2 gnd rswk-swf Landschaftsgarten (DE-588)4073981-8 gnd rswk-swf Denkmal (DE-588)4011453-3 gnd rswk-swf Gartenkunst (DE-588)4125179-9 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf Landschaftsgarten (DE-588)4073981-8 s Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 s DE-604 Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Gartenkunst (DE-588)4125179-9 s Grabmal (DE-588)4021732-2 s Martyrium (DE-588)4168985-9 s Geschichte 1600-1800 z 1\p DE-604 Denkmal (DE-588)4011453-3 s Geschichte 1500-2000 z 2\p DE-604 3\p DE-604 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
