The rise of civilisation could be seen as a series of transformations when populations started to see the world through a different lens, leading to profound and permanent change. They are the transformations that have shaped the modern world such as: the Reformation, Enlightenment, Romantic Period or the spread of the major religions. Each of these transformations was reflected in a different form of garden and these are the existing and proposed gardens in the Hamilton Gardens collection. In our next talk, Peter Sergel will explain this concept in more detail.
A copy of the book will be raffled at this talk and light refreshments served afterwards.
5.15 pm, 2nd May 2024, Hamilton Gardens Pavilion.
