His account of a man-made lake abundant with fish, a verdant green hill lush with trees, raised walkways, and a plethora of beasts and birds took root in the European imagination as the description of a kind of Eden. Beginning in the sixteenth century, permanent interaction between Europe and China took form, and Jesuit missionaries and travelers recorded in letters and memoirs their admiration of Chinese gardens for their seeming naturalness. In the eighteenth century, European taste for chinoiserie reached its height, and informed observers of the Far East discovered that sophisticated and codified design principles lay behind the apparent simplicity of the Chinese garden. The widespread appreciation of the eighteenth century gave way to rejection in the nineteenth, a result of tensions over practical concerns such as trade imbalances and symbolized by the destruction of the imperial park of Yuanming yuan by a joint Anglo-French military expedition. In Ideas of Chinese Gardens, Bianca Maria Rinaldi has gathered an unparalleled collection of westerners' accounts, many freshly translated and all expertly annotated, as well as images that would have accompanied the texts as they circulated in Europe. Representing a great diversity of materials and literary genres, Rinaldi's book includes more than thirty-five sources that span centuries, countries, languages, occupational biases, and political aims. By providing unmediated firsthand accounts of the testimony of these travelers and expatriates, Rinaldi illustrates how the Chinese garden was progressively lifted out of the realm of fantasy into something that could be compared with, and have an impact on, European traditions. 410 0$aPenn studies in landscape architecture. 606 $aGardens, Chinese$zChina$xHistory$vSources 606 $aGardens$zChina$xHistory$vSources 606 $aLandscape architecture$zChina$xHistory$vSources 606 $aAesthetics, Oriental 606 $aVoyages and travels$xHistory 606 $aTravelers' writings$xHistory 607 $aChina$xDescription and travel$xHistory$vSources 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGardens, Chinese$xHistory 615 0$aGardens$xHistory 615 0$aLandscape architecture$xHistory 615 0$aAesthetics, Oriental. 615 0$aVoyages and travels$xHistory. 615 0$aTravelers' writings$xHistory. 676 $a712/.60951 686 $aLO 89425$qBSZ$2rvk 702 $aRinaldi$b Bianca Maria 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461045203321 996 $aIdeas of Chinese gardens$92445511 997 $aUNINA
