Eighteenth-century England saw the rise of a "peculiarly English"
art form -- landscape gardening -- and a corresponding change in
attitudes toward the natural world. While the French, who lived
under tyranny, had tightly organized, restrictive gardens, the
"free" English enjoyed gardens where they were at liberty to
wander. John Dixon Hunt examines eighteenth-century letters,
literary and critical works, biographies, paintings, prints, and
drawings to trace the gradual movement from formal regularity
toward a carefully calculated naturalness.
