Summary:
George Plumptre traces the use of ornamental features throughout the history of the Western garden from the great formal gardens of Italy and France to the more intimate creations of contemporary design. Taking the principal categories of ornament in turn, he shows how, over the last five hundred years, garden designers have used stone, wood, and metal to enhance and modify the natural features of the landscape. He then analyzes the role of ornament in modern garden design, showing how long-held and tested principles of design can be applied imaginatively in the typical modern garden. With special contribution by Jamie Garnock and James Rylands. Photographs by Hugh Palmer.

Summary:
One common feature of the wave of recent revolutions and revolts around the world is not political but rather architectural: many erupted on inner-city roundabouts. In thinking about the relation between protest and urban form, Eyal Weizman starts with the May 1980 uprising in Gwangju, South Korea, the first of the “roundabout revolutions,” and traces its lineage to the Arab Spring and its hellish aftermath. Rereading the history of the roundabout through the vortices of history that traverse it, the book follows the development of the roundabout in Europe and North America in the early twentieth century, to its subsequent export to the colonial world in the context of attempts to discipline and police the “chaotic” non-Western city. How did an urban apparatus put in the service of authoritarian power became the locus of its undoing?
