Study on the Spatial Restoration and Gardening Characteristics of Wu's Garden Pavilion in Xiuning in Song Dynasty
Wu's garden in Zhuzhou is a private garden of Wu Jing,a literati of Southern Song Dynasty,located in Xiuning County,Huangshan City,Anhui Province.Since there are fewer surviving Song Dynasty gardens in Huizhou,case studies are limited,thus garden documentation has become an important source for the study of Huizhou gardens in Song Dynasty.This paper takes the garden record Records of Zhuzhou written by Wu Jing as a guide,and combines historical materials such as county records and literary collections to firstly verify and deduce the location of Wu's garden;then,combining the garden records,it extracts information on gardening elements such as architecture,plants and gardening activities,and then deduces the spatial layout of Wu's garden and derives the topological map of spatial structure;finally,it summarizes the functions and streamline of Wu's garden in Zhuzhou,analyzes the characteristics of gardening,and also the original text of the ideas and techniques of man-made gardens.The study shows that Wu's garden in Zhuzhou is a representative of the literati gardens in Huizhou in Song Dynasty,which expands the study cases of Song Dynasty gardens in the history of gardening in Jiangnan,enriches the study contents of Huizhou gardens,and provides reference for the case study of Huizhou gardens.
