  • Plant and Garden Imagery in Plato's Phaedrus
    From the Plane Tree to the Gardens of Adonis: Plant and Garden Imagery in Plato’s Phaedrus By Daniel Carey Supervised by Dennis J. Schmidt Submitted in fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Master of Research School of Humanities and Communication Arts WESTERN SYDNEY UNIVERSITY 2021 For Torrie 2 Acknowledgements A project like this would not have been completed without the help of some truly wonderful people. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Dennis J. Schmidt, for his patience, excitement, and unwavering commitment to my work. This thesis was initially conceived as a project on gardening in the history of philosophy, although it quickly turned into an examination of plant and garden imagery in Plato’s dialogue the Phaedrus. If not for Denny’s guiding hand I would not have had the courage to pursue this text. Over this past year he has taught me to appreciate the art of close reading and pushed me to think well beyond my comfort levels; for that, I am eternally grateful. I would also like to thank Professor Drew A. Hyland, who through the course of my candidature, took the time to answer several questions I had about the dialogue. In addition, I would like to thank Associate Professors Jennifer Mensch and Dimitris Vardoulakis. While they might not have had any direct hand in this project, my time spent in their graduate classes opened my eyes to new possibilities and shaped my way of thinking. Last but not least, I owe a great debt of thanks to Dr.

  • THE CONSERVATION AREA and the REGISTRED LANDSCAPE Lecture 1: History
    THE CONSERVATION AREA AND THE REGISTRED LANDSCAPE Lecture 1: History. From the garden to the cultural landscape ideas Katarzyna Palubska, PhD ICOMOS-POLAND [email protected] The history of gardens is a special chapter in the history of art, because - unlike for example from sculptures or paintings - all gardens were subject to constant changes and alterations, and above all - and this is the most important - the subject of garden art are living plants that grow and change the image of the garden. In spite of this variability, each garden implements one and sometimes several at the same time from the aesthetic and philosophical concepts that create the logical history of this art. It is worth remembering that the art of gardens is the oldest of the arts, because the first garden was paradise. Terminology: Garden - a space separated from the environment by closing and separating with a fence, intended for the cultivation of useful and ornamental plants Park - from landscape gardens in the 18th century, a compositional-spatial garden with the surrounding landscape Landscape concepts - a more general concept applied to some garden solutions, eg alley, boulevard, calvary, etc .. (Majdecki, 2008) ANCIENT GARDENS • Based on artificial irrigation • In the system of flat terraces with swimming pools, dikes and wells • The oldest transfers concern 3100 years BC. • Characteristic trees: sycamore (Ficus sycomorus), fig tree, vines, date palm • The gardens were always surrounded by a wall. In ancient Egypt, the central element of the royal, grave and cult gardens was a water reservoir - a canal or swimming pool with colorful fish and lotus.

  • The Rose in Ancient Greek Culture
    THE ROSE IN ANCIENT GREEK CULTURE © Géczi, János [email protected] The tablets of Pylos - On the rose motifs in Homeric poetry - Roses of the gods - The choruses - Roses transformed into people: Anacreon and Sappho - Roses in everyday life: From the garland to the floral carpet, from the daub to the artificial flower - Rose allusions in the worldview - Rose symbols of Greek poets of the Hellenistic era - The roses of pederasty, trend toward desanctification - Rose symbols in Greek poetry in the first through third centuries - Forest, park, garden? - Botany - The rose in medicine - Later sources: Summary of the Greek rose thematic - The Greek rose The meaning of the grammatically neuter Greek word for rose, is dual, referring to both the plant and the color pink. The word is probably closest to the Armenian word ward, ‘rose,’ which in turn may originate from Old Persian *urda- (Indo-European *urdho-). (Mayerhofer, however, may originate from the Arabic words warada ‘to bloom’ and waruda ‘to be red.’1) Of its components its color-related meaning – for example, in references to Dawn (Aios2) – indicate that the concepts were brought together by analogous thinking.3 The word primarily evokes a color, but it also designates a plant (more precisely, the flower of a plant) whose color reliably identifies it. The color and the plant (or the flower of the plant), as demonstrated by early Greek sources, appear interchangeable, although there are, indisputably, differences in their meanings. The differences in content in the two homonyms as used in everyday descriptions resulted in an expansion of the semantic content of the word rose, through the Greeks’ emphasis on subtle distinctions and individual thinking.

That tree so lovely to see acts as if it wants to fl ower: it is yearning for something.” — Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, 1395 xx The Legacy of Seventeen Past Presidents – Santa Barbara Beautiful “Waiting for a Message” by Rochelle Mass “Trees help you see slices of sky between branches, point to things you could never reach. Trees help you watch the growing happen, watch blossoms burst then dry, see shade twist to the pace of a sun, birds tear at unwilling seeds. Trees take the eye to where it is, where it was, then over to distant hills, faraway to other places and times, long ago. A tree is a lens, a viewfi nder, a window.
