Early European History

The First Traces of Man in European History

The earliest evidence of human presence (of the Homo erectus species) in Europe dates back to 500,000 – 10,000 years ago. Fossil remains from this period have been found as far west as England. These early descendants of Homo erectus are significantly different from what we recognize as humans today. Their brain size and body structure are classified as an early form of humans, known as Neanderthal man. They are considered a precursor to Homo sapiens. This species inhabited what we now know as Europe for thousands of years, leaving behind only a few traces of themselves, such as stone tools and fossils.

The First Signs of Culture

Modern humans, who closely resemble people today, arrived in Europe relatively late. However, the continent offers ample evidence of early human culture. A Neanderthal flute is possibly the oldest known cultural artifact. Small carvings and cave paintings are among the most prominent forms of prehistoric art found in Europe. Eastern Europe contains traces of the earliest known freestanding structures, including circular huts with tusks or stones supporting a type of superstructure.

Tracing The Roots Of Romance

During the 12th century, medieval French society began to view relationships and marriages as bonds of love rather than business arrangements. As dating and courtship became widely accepted, romance stories emerged. The earliest romance stories took the form of ballads sung by balladeers who celebrated courtly love. As they traveled from place to place, their ballads gained popularity and spread rapidly throughout Europe.

These romance stories were eventually adapted into plays, and some writers began composing love stories. Early romance novels typically centered on a man rescuing a woman from a dangerous situation, with the woman falling in love with her savior. Even Shakespeare wrote stories with romantic elements, such as Romeo and Juliet, which was not initially intended to be a romantic drama but ultimately became one of the greatest love stories in history.

The first romantic fiction story revolved around a woman being pursued by a man with unwavering determination until she agreed to marry him. This two-volume novel, Pamela, became a major hit during that era. In 1794, Anne Radcliffe started writing gothic romances, followed by Jane Austen’s women-centered novels gaining popularity. Austen’s Pride and Prejudice set the stage for many new romance genres.

Symmetric Landscape Ideas

Symmetry and tranquility are closely intertwined and serve as a fundamental principle in various art forms, including design. In landscape design, balance is a crucial aspect to consider. Although the concept can be more complex, it is easier for beginners to comprehend and fully grasp this idea. Perfection is often equated with symmetry in Western culture. However, some Asian traditions do not appreciate the use of even numbers of objects, as they believe it is too perfect to truly represent life and its inherent imperfections. Imperfection can create a more natural and rugged feel, and may even add character, whereas perfection can appear monotonous.

If a garden or landscape exhibits symmetrical lines and equal proportions, it may appear balanced and harmonious in design. However, symmetrical lines and shapes are not always possible, and as a result, other elements may be introduced to achieve symmetry and harmonious balance. Many gardens and landscapes are asymmetrical or abstract in nature and lack inherent balance.

The absence of symmetry and balance is often related to a lack of repetition. Incorporating similar elements throughout a garden or landscape can restore lost symmetry and help unify various areas. Repeating elements such as plants, stones, matching plant …
