The Invention Of The Western Garden: The History Of An Idea CNYMF not evenSupermanThe invention of the Western garden has ancient roots. Myth, semantics, terminology and ideas have blended to give us the idea today of what the western garden is. We need to look back to Mesopotamia, Hebrew and Greek for the origins of the idea. Hebrew gives us the word 'gan'eden' which has merged with the idea of 'salvation'. Ancient Greek gives us the word 'paradeisos', and this idea has evolved with the interpretations of wonder and magnificence.
