The garden of the Chanteloup castle (Saint-Germain-lËs-Arpajon), owned by the Villeroy-Neufville family, was one of the wonders of the French Renaissance, which could compete with the great Italian gardens of the time. Perrine Galand-Willemen and Ma…tthieu Dejean revive this exceptional artistic creation in its historical and intellectual context. The authors have studied several travel guides and a long Latin poem entitled Cantilupum (Paris, 1587; 1588), which describes the meanders of the garden. Cantilupum was written by Madeleine de L'Aubespine-Villeroy (1546-1596), wife of Secretary of State Nicolas IV de Neufville-Villeroy, lady of honour of Catherine de' Medici, woman of letters whom Ronsard considered his spiritual daughter . The garden of Chanteloup housed an extraordinary set of topiaries (carved shrubs), automata, statues, models and fountains, which recreated Roman civilization and offered an initiatory, stoic-Christian course to the walker. English text, colour plus black and white reproductions.
