Description

Western gardens have traditionally been considered under the rhetorical topic of locus amoenus, which promote the intellectual activities. Taking the intellectual upheaval of early modern European world into account, this rhetorical topic of garden must have also suffered a certain change. And it is said that the art of memory has a great influence on this change of the intellectual world. Comparing the Art of Locational Memory (1591) of Dominican friar Agostinno Del Riccio (1541-98) and his ideal garden project, this study argues that the representation of encyclopedic knowledge in the early modern gardens were the result of the mnemonic spatial structure that they had.
