Part of the acclaimed series curated by leading scholars, it employs the \"stories-routes-appreciation\" framework to unlock this classical landscape. Celebrated as the \"Garden by Night\" for its enchanting Kunqu performances and interplay of light, it embodies the poetic ideal of a \"Fisherman's Retreat.\" The book explores how, within less than ten mu, the garden achieves profound spatial complexity and the literati ideal of \"small yet complete.\" It traces the garden's journey from its Southern Song origins to its modern resonance, including its notable replication as the Astor Court at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Through scholarly insights and engaging visuals, this work reveals the garden as a masterpiece of condensed artistry and a living expression of Jiangnan's cultural sophistication.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eText in English and Mandarin.","brand":"Tongji University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48785529864447,"sku":"9787576520002","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9787576520002","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
