Why do we so often connect our childhoods with gardens? Why has the myth of a lost Eden been so ubiquitous and so formative?The Green Fuse: Essays in Making Sense of Gardens explores our deep-rooted impulses to create gardens, examining them through the lenses of history, religion, nostalgia and myth. It connects gardens with the other arts – painting, music, literature and theatre – and contemplates their intellectual and philosophical significance. Blending lyrical reflections with research, it offers an unusually wide-ranging and thoughtful perspective on gardens and why we make them. It will be ideal for all readers interested in gardening and its cultural implications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tales on Market Street","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43491408216270,"sku":"9781836390282","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7727\/4318\/files\/9781836390282.jpg?v=1776349559","url":"https:\/\/top-hatandtales.co.uk\/products\/9781836390282","provider":"Top Hat \u0026 Tales","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
