- Abstract
It is perhaps rather fanciful, but the two "schools" of gardening, into one of which almost every garden since the memory of man rennet not to the contrary, until the nineteenth century, could be placed, can be traced back to the two distinct originals of our western Christian civilization. Until fairly recently most people in the western world were brought up if not on, at least more or less in touch with, the Bible; consequently, for most western men, Eden was the garden. Granted that no such place ever existed outside Jewish mythology, yet since a myth stands for something in the mind and soul of man, the nature of Eden is significant. And Eden was, clearly, an "English" garden.
