Description
This collection brings together primary sources on gardens and gardening across the nineteenth-century.
Several factors contributed towards, and were influenced by the evolution of gardens in the period: expansion of empire, economic growth and industrialisation were one set of factors which, in turn stimulated the development of leisure and mass markets, the spread of the middle-classes and the professionalisation of gardening, the development of the suburbs and changing role of women.
Gardens are a subject that is both global and multidisciplinary and this set provides the reader with a variety of ways in which to read them – through recognition of how they were conceived and experienced as they developed.
Material is primarily derived from Britain, with Europe, USA, Australia, India, China and Japan also featuring, and sources include the gardening press, the broader press, government papers, book excerpts and some previously unpublished material.
