L'agglomération de Liège est riche de très nombreux espaces verts. Ceux-ci sont cependant peu reliés entre eux et leur accès est parfois malaisé pour le public. L'étude présentée ici propose une réflexion portant sur le territoires de sept communes urbaines - Liège, Ans, Beyne-Heusay, Chaudfontaine, Herstal, Saint-Nicolas et Seraing - qui vise à valoriser ce potentiel, dans une perspective orientée vers l'usage collectif, la mobilité douce et la qualité de vie des habitants de la ville, mais en intégrant aussi des dimensions paysagère, urbanistique, environnementale, touristique ou économique. Pour la dizaine d'auteurs de ce documents, il serait possible, avec des moyens relativement réduits, de faire émerger un maillage vert liégeois.

This volume focuses on the outstanding contributions made by botany and the mathematical sciences to the genesis and development of early modern garden art and garden culture. The many facets of the mathematical sciences and botany point to the increasingly “scientific” approach that was being adopted in and applied to garden art and garden culture in the early modern period. This development was deeply embedded in the philosophical, religious, political, cultural and social contexts, running parallel to the beginning of processes of scientization so characteristic for modern European history. This volume strikingly shows how these various developments are intertwined in gardens for various purposes.

This book provides an overview of the extent to which the 18th century English Landscape Garden spread through Europe and Russia. While this type of garden acted widely as an inspiration, it was not slavishly copied but adapted to local conditions, circumstances and agendas. A garden 'in the English style' is commonly used to denote a landscape garden in Europe, while the term 'landscape garden' is used for layouts that are naturalistic in plan and resemble natural scenery, though they might be highly contrived and usually large in scale. The landscape garden took hold in mainland Europe from about 1760. Due to the differing geopolitical character of several of the countries, and a distinct division between Catholic and Protestant, the notion of the landscape garden held different significance and was interpreted and applied variously in those countries: in other words, they found it a very flexible medium. Each country is considered individually, with a special chapter devoted to 'Le Jardin Anglo-Chinois', since that constitutes a major issue of its own. The gardens have been chosen to illustrate the range and variety of applications of the landscape garden, though they are also those about which most is known in English
