明代西湖的景观文化：明代公共工程背景下西湖园林发展

杭州西湖是中国艺术史上最重要的地点之一,然而在西方语言中并没有专门对其明代状况的研究。明代300年的统治对西湖的发展是至关重要的,16世纪初因扩张的农耕导致西湖空间几近消失,而至16世纪末西湖则是明代最主要的旅游景点之一。以景观文化的新的跨学科方法角度,探讨导致这种巨大变化的社会和审美进程;并将展示在这些进程中,美学、历史认同和经济发展如何扮演着不同角色,而且并不总是和谐一致。

Landscape Culture of West Lake in Ming Dynasty: Development of West Lake Gardens under the Background of Public Projects in Ming Dynasty

Hangzhou West Lake is one of the most important places in the history of Chinese art. However, there is no specific study on it in Ming Dynasty in Western literatures. The 300-year rule of Ming Dynasty was crucial to the development of the West Lake. At the beginning of the 16th century, the West Lake space almost disappeared due to the expansion of farming. By the end of the 16th century, the West Lake was one of the most important tourist attractions of Ming Dynasty. The paper explores the social and aesthetic processes that led to this dramatic change from the perspective of a new interdisciplinary approach to landscape culture, and shows how aesthetics, historical identity, and economic development played different roles in these processes that were not always harmonious or consistent.
