Abstract

Abstract Chapter 5—“Formal Aesthetic Properties of Gardens”—begins with a general account of what it means to aesthetically appreciate anything. Working with this structure, the chapter explores what it means to aesthetically appreciate gardens, with a specific emphasis on identifying a garden’s aesthetic properties. Since a garden is always changing in a variety of ways, knowing that garden’s aesthetic properties is more complex than it would otherwise be. The chapter explores this, offering a solution and delineating the sorts of properties that gardens have (such as phenomenal properties and process properties) that give rise to their aesthetic properties, both as individual gardens and as garden types.
