Tout d'abord modeste abri pour les plantes fragiles puis grandes cathédrales de cristal dont s'enrichissent les plus beaux jardins botaniques, la serre est aujourd'hui un lieu de protection et de conservation des espèces en danger. Mais cet espace tempéré et lumineux est devenu surtout une pièce à vivre : une pièce « verte » remplie de plantes qui permet de retrouver à tout moment le contact avec la nature. Le jardin d'hiver fait rentrer le jardin dans la maison et offre le délicieux plaisir de vivre parmi les plantes et les fleurs à l'abri des intempéries. Un lieu idéal pour rêver, lire, se reposer, recevoir des amis ; une pièce en plus ouvrant sur le jardin, ou plus simplement sur une terrasse ou un balcon. Ce livre donne l'occasion de comprendre l'engouement que suscitent ces constructions d'acier et de verre : il invite à un voyage dans le temps et dans l'espace à la découverte de ces lieux publics spectaculaires et offre au lecteur la possibilité de pénétrer dans des endroits intimes plus secrets ; tels ces jardins d'hiver privés qui sont devenus salons, salle à manger, cuisine ou bureau. Cet ouvrage s'impose comme une source d'inspiration précieuse – enrichie par un carnet d'adresses – pour qui rêve de créer ce jardin intérieur baigné de lumière et à l'abri du vent.

Aujourd'hui, dans nos contrées froides ou tempérées, nous pouvons aisément admirer la flore tropicale en visitant les grandes serres qui agrémentent un certain nombre de jardins publics ou privés. Mais en fut-il toujours ainsi ? L'auteur retrace cette quête des hommes, permanente depuis le début du XVIIe siècle, pour jouir du plaisir de posséder et contempler ces étranges végétaux venus des « zones torrides ». Comment protéger ces plantes qui ne peuvent supporter nos climats ? Comment leur construire un abri approprié, orangerie, serre froide ou serre chaude ? Durant des siècles, botanistes, jardiniers et propriétaires vont se trouver confrontés à de nombreux défis : progresser dans la connaissance de la biologie des plantes exotiques, maîtriser les matériaux de construction - bois, fer, vitrage - et inventer de nouveaux systèmes de chauffage. L'usage du fer et de la fonte, les innovations des verriers et la mise au point du chauffage par thermosiphon, dans les années 1850, transformeront les serres en palais de verre et les plantes chétives en forêts tropicales ! C'est ce long cheminement, jalonné par toutes les nouveautés techniques apparues au fil du temps, qui est décrit ici, des débuts balbutiants des années 1600 à l'apogée des années 1900.

Challenging the conventional wisdom that French environmentalism can be dated only to the post-1945 period, Caroline Ford argues that a broadly shared environmental consciousness emerged in France much earlier. Natural Interests unearths the distinctive features of French environmentalism, in which a large and varied cast of social actors played a role. Besides scientific advances and colonial expansion, nostalgia for a vanishing pastoral countryside and anxiety over the pressing dangers of environmental degradation were important factors in the success of this movement. Over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, war, political upheaval, and natural disasters—especially the devastating floods of 1856 and 1910 in Paris—caused growing worry over the damage wrought by deforestation, urbanization, and industrialization. The natural world took on new value for France’s urban bourgeoisie, as both a site of aesthetic longing and a destination for tourism. Not only naturalists and scientists but politicians, engineers, writers, and painters took up environmental causes. Imperialism and international dialogue were also instrumental in shaping environmental consciousness, as the unfamiliar climates of France’s overseas possessions changed perceptions of the natural world and influenced conservationist policies. By the early twentieth century, France had adopted innovative environmental legislation, created national and urban parks and nature reserves, and called for international cooperation on environmental questions.

Wild animals have fascinated human observers since time immemorial. The story of our interest in collecting, classifying and dominating Nature so that its inner workings could be understood also looms large in the history of science, and thus it is surprising that the history of menageries, zoological gardens and the zoo as we know it today has been so poorly documented. This gap is addressed by Zoo, a comprehensive history of the zoo in the Western world.

Ever since the creation of the world's first botanical and zoological gardens five thousand years ago, people have collected, displayed, and depicted plants and animals from lands beyond their everyday experience. Some did so to demonstrate power over distant territories, others to enhance prestige by possessing something no one had seen before. Exotica also satisfied intellectual curiosity, furthered scientific research, and educated and entertained. In addition, exotica, especially their state-sponsored representation, were often instruments of political persuasion, and in turn exerted considerable influence over expansionist policies. More than an account of gardens and menageries from antiquity to the present, Strange and Wonderful explores the imagery of exotic flora and fauna in Western art, seeking answers to certain fundamental and universal questions. How do artists, schooled in traditional modes of rendering the familiar, deal with the new and strange? Why are rare species deliberately introduced into images otherwise devoid of the unusual? What is the pictorialized relationship between exotic reality and artistic imagination? Karen Polinger Foster takes readers on a journey across millennia and around the globe, telling fascinating stories and meeting along the way such characters as Hatshepsut's baboons, Charlemagne's elephant, D�rer's rhinoceros, and Victoria's hippopotamus. What emerges is a sense of just how strong and far-reaching the pull of the unknown and exotic has been across time and space. Ultimately, images of the wonderful reveal as much about the indigenous as they do about the strange, enabling us to glimpse more vividly the power of imagination to mold the unknown to its purposes. This dazzling and richly illustrated volume offers a thoughtful, much-needed inquiry into a very human phenomenon.
