Byzantine Garden Culture is the first and only book devoted to the Byzantine garden. Serious attention is only rarely paid to the subject, so indirect is the mass of information both in literature and the visual arts that is available. This volume presents eleven studies from top Byzantine scholars on the history of these multifaceted spaces. Individual essays discuss Byzantine conceptions of paradise, the textual evidence for monastic horticulture, animal and game parks, herbs in medicinal pharmacy, and the famous illustrated copy of Dioskorides's herbal manual in Vienna. It opens with questions and observations from the point of view of a garden historian and closes with suggestions for future scholarship.
