I. English gardens ,which have often been described as ‘picturesque’, are probably Great Britain’s greatest contribution to the visual culture of Europe. Among those whose ideas helped to shape the ideal English garden was John Ruskin.
Ruskin, whosename is associated with Pre-Raphaelites,supported naturalism in art. He was a lover of the Alps, which/that he often visited, and of the Lake District, where he lived. He insisted that natural beauty is the antidote to the misery of industrialization. While the French theorists admired medieval architecture for its engineering, Ruskin valued the stones which/that it was made from. William Morris, influenced by Ruskin’s ideas admired the old-fashioned gardens ,that surrounded the ancient manor houses of the countryside. His followers also idealized cottages and the free-blowing gardens ,which went with them.
II. China’s approach to human rights might be a serious concern, but in these days of global economic turndown, there are more pressing issues that should be at the top of the West’s agenda. The government should continue bilateral exchanges between London and Beijing ,which began in 2004. The appetite for cheap consumer goods thatthe West has developed over the past decades has been the driving force behind China’s rapid economic growth. In recent years China has been one of the highest buyers of the US debt which Beijing regarded as a safe investment. If the Chinese, thatmight react to Washington’s protectionism,withdrew their financial support for the West’s economies, the recession could rapidly turn into something much worse. The Chinese premier Wen Jiabao, whoproclaims himself a fan of Adam Smith,resists any attempt by the West to make China the scapegoat for the global crisis.
But just as Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, whose country is also suffering economic turndown,has discovered the benefits of working with the West, so China has woken to the responsibilities that go with being a modern global power.
