Walking as a methodological approach has developed within anthropological, literary, sociological, and ethnographic research, and more recently in ethno-biographic studies, but has not greatly crossed into history or art history. In this article, using the metaphor of the “constellation,” we offer a transdisciplinary methodology to complicate Euro-western renaissance humanism, in our exploration of the gendered, temporal, spatial, and cultural aspects of renaissance Florence, through a walk in the “Boboli gardens” in the footsteps of Poliphilo. Walking helps us to form a sense of our past, present, and future, and in walking, we gain ground in the “art of paying attention” (Ingold). In our walk, key emerging themes are the gardens as a metaphor for visual culture; the phenomenological, temporal, and spatial transgression of gender norms and their demarcated thresholds; gardens as stimulating cognition and the sensorial; and the developing art of garden aesthetics and the architectonic.

漫步在佛罗伦萨的波波里花园:对嗜睡症中中世纪情感的跨学科、视觉、文化和星座分析
步行作为一种方法论方法已经在人类学、文学、社会学和人种学研究中以及最近在人种传记研究中得到发展,但并没有深入到历史或艺术史中。在这篇文章中,我们使用“星座”的比喻,提供了一种跨学科的方法论,在我们探索文艺复兴佛罗伦萨的性别、时间、空间和文化方面的过程中,通过在“波波里花园”在 Poliphilo 的足迹中。步行帮助我们形成对过去、现在和未来的感觉,在步行中,我们在“注意力的艺术”(英戈尔德)中取得了进展。在我们的步行中,主要的新兴主题是花园作为视觉文化的隐喻;现象学的、时间的、性别规范及其界定的阈值的空间越界;作为刺激认知和感官的花园;以及园林美学和建筑艺术的发展。
