The effects of repeated copying and recording media on intelligibility
The increasing use of MiniDisc technology for audio harvesting by law enforcement agencies gives some cause for concern. The reasons for its use are understandable: the kit is small, cheap, light and easy to use. However, there are disadvantages when compared to some of the existing technologies, due to the use of bit reduction techniques. In order to demonstrate the potential problems associated with MiniDisc technology, a two-factor design expe…

The Origins of the Gothic Revival
William Kent, Landscape Garden Designer
The Figure in the Landscape
Pictura, Scriptura, and Theatrum
The emblem and the theater are forms par excellence where the verbal and visual cohabit. Not surprisingly, therefore, the study of that moment of English theater when it achieved new heights, new sophistication, under the genius of Shakespeare and a cluster of other dramatists has recently been much concerned with invoking emblems, which also enjoyed prominence in late-sixteenth-century Europe.' Yet the invocation of emblems as a means of elucida…

Ut pictura poesis, the picturesque, and John Ruskin
It was John Ruskin's lifelong conviction that greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something, and tell what it saw in a plain way. And what he goes on to say is crucial to any understanding of the priorities of his spiritual and intellectual world: Hundreds of people can talk for who can think, but thousands can think for who can see. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy, and religion,-all in one (V 333).1 An examination of…
The Figure in the Landscape
The Figure in the Landscape
Eighteenth-century England saw the rise of a peculiarly art form -- landscape gardening -- and a corresponding change in attitudes toward the natural world. While the French, who lived under tyranny, had tightly organized, restrictive gardens, the free English enjoyed gardens where they were at liberty to wander. John Dixon Hunt examines eighteenth-century letters, literary and critical works, biographies, paintings, prints, and drawings to trace…
The Genius of the Place
A garden classic, The Genius of the Place reveals that the history of landscape gardening is much more than a history of design and style; it opens up a wide perspective of English cultural history, showing how landscape gardening was gradually transformed over two centuries into an art that has been widely imitated throughout Europe and North America.The English landscape garden is richly documented in this anthology. Over 100 illustrations acco…
Emblem and Expressionism in the Eighteenth-Century Landscape Garden
THE PROGRESS OF landscape gardening in the eighteenth century is, as everyone knows, closely connected with literary history. Their relationship is celebrated in Horace Walpole's apophthegm: Poetry, Painting, and Gardening, or the Science of Landscape, will forever by men of taste be deemed Three Sisters, or the Three New Graces who dress and adorn nature.I Their cooperation certainly established a new style of landscape gardening. But what is ra…
