The book presents the phenomenon of the garden and its various cultural features. It compares historical aspects of the garden with its contemporary models and focuses on various cultural traditions and different ways of presentation of this problem, in the context of world literature, problems of visual arts, questions of architecture, ecology, universal aspects of language, as well as philosophical problems of axiology and aesthetics. All those contexts combine to form a picture of a phenomenon that could be called "the metaphor of the garden", containing a universal anthropological image of "space" in which dynamic re-evaluation of rhetorical models take place and the order of Nature complements cultural models of human understanding of reality.
