GARDENS KNOWLEDGE AND THE SCIENCES IN THE EARLY...

This volume of proceedings primarily focuses on the outstanding contributions made by botany
and the mathematical sciences to the genesis and development of early modern garden art and
garden culture. The many facets of mathematical sciences and botany point to the increasingly
scientific approach that was being adopted in garden art and garden culture in the early modern
period. This development unfolds in interaction with philosophical  religious  political and
social processes and beliefs. This volume strikingly shows that such processes are able to make
use of the knowledge of nature manifested in gardens for various purposes. The conference that
inspired this volume was jointly organized by the Leibniz Universität Hannover's Centre of
Garden Art and Landscape Architecture (CGL) and the Bergische Universität Wuppertal's
Interdisciplinary Centre for Science and Technology Studies (IZWT).
