Résumé:
Jardins secs, jardins paysages, jardins pour le thé, les jardins japonais relèvent d'un art subtil mêlant l'eau, le végétal, la pierre et la volonté de l'homme de lutter contre les désordres de la nature et du monde. Ces lieux propices à la contemplation et à la méditation, conçus selon des codes en relation avec la peinture et la calligraphie, et un langage symbolique trouvant ses sources dans le bouddhisme et dans le shintoïsme, sont des représentations du monde en miniature, de véritables peintures en trois dimensions. Objets d'admiration et de fascination pour les Occidentaux, les jardins japonais ont eu une influence considérable sur l'a et l'architecture dès la fin du XIXe siècle. Ils restent cependant largement méconnus. Ce livre donne des clés de compréhension aussi bien historiques que stylistiques permettant de partir à la découverte des plus célèbres d'entre eux et d'apprendre à lire leurs significations.
