These collected works represent twenty-five years of study of
the designed landscape which the author here takes to include
gardens, cemeteries, plazas and other shared spaces. Asking
essential questions about the nature of order and its perception,
this book includes in its impressive scope analyses of both
historic and modern works with a geographical distribution that
extends across Europe, Asia and North America. With unique depth in
many areas of study, Treib brings his expertise to bear on a range
of inter-related and mutually influential issues within the
subject, taking in an assessment of the lives and contributions of
a number of leading figures in the field, the contents of a
landscape and the meanings ascribed to it, and a theoretical
formulation of the ideas from which or by which landscape
architecture is produced.
