Description

Explore the intersection of gardening, class, and gender in this groundbreaking scholarly work from Routledge. This book presents the first comprehensive analysis of how media interest in gardening shapes and reflects cultural identities. Drawing on ethnographic data gathered from real gardeners, the author examines aesthetic dispositions as a symbolic mode of communication closely tied to people's identities and social positions. The book maps a detailed typology of gardening taste, revealing how plant selection, planting methods, and care practices communicate identity markers based on class and gender positioning. Essential reading for scholars, landscape architects, cultural studies researchers, and anyone interested in understanding how gardens function as sites of identity construction and cultural meaning-making.
