Description

Explore the complex world of ancient Roman landscapes with The Roman Garden: Space, Sense, and Society. Published by Routledge as part of the Monographs in Classical Studies series, this book provides a first-of-its-kind study that merges literary and archaeological evidence with modern space theory. Rather than looking at gardens as simple plots of land, this work examines them as active sites of cultural communication. By using interdisciplinary methods such as access analysis, gender theory, and literary theory, the text creates a framework to understand how these spaces functioned within the social fabric of Rome. Readers gain a deep understanding of how gardens operated as conceptual, sensual, and physical environments. This study is an essential resource for anyone interested in how Roman society used landscape to express identity and social meaning. It offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between physical surroundings and the people who inhabited them.
