Helena Bodin, Ragnar Hedlund · 2013
על הספר
"Byzantine Gardens and Beyond has its origin in a symposium that was organized by the Nordic Byzantine Network in [7-8] April 2011 at the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study (SCAS), situated in the [Linneanum of the] Botanical Garden of Uppsala. The anthology aims to bring together different perspectives on Byzantine garden culture. Byzantium offers a vantage point for reflecting on the wider meaning and significance of the garden. This topic is discussed by a group of scholars belonging to various disciplines and methodological approaches, ranging from Byzantine Studies, Archaeology, Landscape Architecture and Literary Studies, to Slavic, Arabic and Swedish languages. The collection of articles takes the reader through time and space, from the Garden of Eden to Rome and Constantinople, and further to Syria, Russia, and Scandinavia. One discovers that the cultivation of gardens has provided unceasing inspiration to artists, writers and thinkers throughout the ages"--Back cover.
