In this volume, Hui Zou analyzes historical, architectural, visual, literary, and philosophical perspectives on the Western-styled garden that formed part of the great Yuanming Yuan complex in Beijing, constructed during the Qing dynasty. Designed and built in the late eighteenth century by Italian and French Jesuits, the garden described in this book was a wonderland of multistoried buildings, fountains, labyrinths, and geometrical hills. It even included an open-air theater. Through detailed examination of historical literature and representations, Zou analyzes the ways in which the Jesuits accommodated their design within the Chinese cultural context. He shows how an especially important element of their approach was the application of a linear perspective to create the jing, the Chinese concept of the bounded bright view of a garden scene. Hui Zou's book demonstrates how Jesuit metaphysics fused with Chinese cosmology and broadens our understanding of cultural and religious encounters in early Chinese modernity.

评分一年前第一次读的时候云里雾里就放下了,这学期重新拿起来,一下就读进去了。对于建造园林,选择郎世宁等人这样的画家背景的人,可以和传统园林的营建方式联系起来看。而当时西人的线法手法又正好可以融入那种表现园林一“景”的图像制作上。不过关于营造思想,哲学层面,具体说对于“园明”,及“楼”与登高远望的解读,觉得还有些困惑。
