Ok, here's my draft class blurb for this class. Obviously it can't just say "the instructor will wander around the classroom passing around books and babbling randomly about the elements of medieval/renaissance garden design."
Development, design, and elements of medieval and Renaissance gardens. View and discuss depictions of period gardens and layouts. Elements you can incorporate in your own garden or encampment. Enclosures, turfseats, decorations, plants, etc. Handouts available.
Here's links to 2 of the three handouts. I don't post the picture-pages I use because I have not found out the copyright status of the book I took most of them from, Frank Crisp's Medieval Gardens.
