<p>In 17–18<sup>th</sup> century, the spread of the image of the Qing Imperial Garden witnessed the cross-cultural exchanges and promoted the
development of English Landscape Garden style. The reciprocal ‘far away foreign land’ between Chinese and British cultures and the
influence of historical context had caused the discrepant view of European on Chinese gardens. This project focuses on the
differences of cultural heritage values found in the two kinds of gardens: from the design of space and structure, poems and paintings
representing designers' concepts, humanities factors, design conception, gardening elements and etc. Which hopes to fill up the gaps
of relevant studies and stress the importance of documentation for gardens between the East and West. There are three aspects to
illustrate the inner differences under the surface similarities between the two kinds of gardens. Firstly, the distortion and discontinuity
through out the introduction and translation.This research attempts to cross-examine such an argument through an investigation into
the journey to the West by the carrier of Chinese Imperial garden ideas. Then the meaning of ‘views of nature’ in the English
Landscape Garden was inconsistent with the Chinese concept of ‘natural state of the world’. Thirdly, the differences of historical
background, culture and values between the Qing Imperial Garden and the English Landscape Garden. All in all, this research could
well invite a more factually-based understanding of the Sino-English architectural interactions as well as the Chinese contributions to
the world architecture.</p> |
