Michael Nylan, professor of East Asian studies at the University of California, Berkeley, examines the archaeological and literary evidence of the emergence of early garden culture in China, from the 4th century B.C. through the Tang Dynasty (618–907). It’s commonly believed that early gardens developed from the imperial hunting grounds, but the standard narrative is worth querying, says Nylan.
