These works suggest an entirely new project for public space — intended as the transposition of an original landscape and a native ecology, such as the Floresta da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro, and the original ‘old growth’ forest of Seattle. The definition of ‘fourth nature’ is added to the three different categories of nature as described in the literature of landscape studies: a ‘first nature’, seen as wild, luxuriant and uncontaminated, is connected to a ‘second nature’ identified by Cicero as the cultural landscape that is productive and shaped by human activity (agriculture, urban development, roads etc.). To these two definitions the garden can be appended as a ‘third nature’, shaped for aesthetic purposes and designed as a combination of nature and culture. The urban question is thus enhanced with a new poetic that, following the idea of ‘fourth nature’, promotes a harmonious growth of the city wherein its natural dimension bestows a new and more effective meaning in the form of open public space. This is evidently not the same idea of ‘fourth nature’ as described by John Dixon Hunt, regarding the symbolic and ideal spaces in landscape design generated by literature on gardens, and his considering it as the ‘verbal, conceptual existence beyond its practical aspects’. Connected to the definition of ‘fourth nature’, there is also the ‘four natures approach’ that is applied to urban reality by Ingo Kowarik as a conceptual framework in which to structure and communicate a variety of green spaces within urban borders. In this case the ‘fourth nature’ identified by the German landscape ecologist includes the spontaneous plant-life that develops in brownfield sites in abandoned areas of the postindustrial cites, which is different from an image of nature incorporated in the city and from the city that I intend to present with this article. What distinguishes this new poetics of nature is its basis in a recognized ecological paradigm, and its capacity to shed light on a new functional aesthetic that can be applied in the urban landscape. My research centers on a renewed relationship between the city and nature starting with the evaluation of the effective natural scale of an urban project, as a specific model in the development of the contemporary city based on an awareness of Ecology’s role in the processes of urban planning. The urban scene becomes a field of experimentation of strongly innovative approaches that are capable of evoking natural processes, while validating formal and ideological reflections of a profound ecological significance.

Its size is a little larger than Central Park in NewYork and double the size of London’s Hyde Park.The first proposal to establish a green open space on the agricultural lands on the outskirts of town appeared in 1925, when Patrick Geddes, the renowned Scottish planner, prepared the first master plan for Tel Aviv. However, the actual planning of the park and its implementation started only during the 1960s. The expansive pastoral park on both banks of the Yarkon Stream exemplifies two processes of the 1960s that are simultaneously separate and connected. The first is the change of Tel Aviv’s status from ‘The First Hebrew Town’ to Israel’s economic and cultural centre. The second is the adoption of the pastoral park as the prototype of Israel’s large urban parks. Whereas the planning of pre-statehood gardens and parks was part of the national project of creating a Hebrew culture among pre-statehood Zionist settlers in Palestine (1880–1948), the 1960s was when the debate between the local garden culture vs. the Western garden culture was decided in favour of the Western style of garden design and especially the 19 century pastoral park as a symbol of Israeli landscape modernism. This article explores the planning process of Yarkon Park in light of the modern landscape architecture movement in the West and as a modern local icon. It analyses primary sources from private and municipal archives and the documentation of the park in the local general and professional press. The discussion emphasises the role of pastoralism in the making of the Israeli parks.","PeriodicalId":53992,"journal":{"name":"STUDIES IN THE HISTORY OF GARDENS & DESIGNED LANDSCAPES","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14601176.2019.1671055","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45747363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
