评《清闲供、小蓬莱》

我国古典园林论著,现在常见的有计成的《园冶》、李笠翁的《一家言居室器玩部》以及明人程荩臣的《清闲供》书中的《小蓬莱》共三种,其余零星散见于古人笔记的不计。《清闲供》一书,计有不同内容的短篇十四篇,《小蓬莱》谈造园艺术,只是书中的一项内容,全文短。《清闲供》毫无现实的积极意义,经过时代的淘汰更失去其效用,成为了糟粕。

Comment on "Qing Xian Lun, Little Penglai"

Cheng Jingchen of the Ming Dynasty wrote the book "Qing-Xian-Lun" containing different content of fourteen short articles, one of them "small Penglai" about garden art. This article is short in length, the discussion content about garden construction is limited and not profound, and its views have no practical guiding significance, so they have been eliminated by The Times.
