Evergreen, A Northern Seasonal. Spring 1895
'Evergreen, A Northern Seasonal. Spring 1895' Summary
The Evergreen was a short-lived seasonal magazine, edited by William Sharp (Fiona Macleod) and published by Patrick Geddes, which proposed a nature-based Celtic renaissance as an alternative to late 19th-century Decadence. In contrast to the Romantics, the Celtic revivalists advocated urban renewal, rather than a return to nature, an idea that would be developed in Patrick Geddes's later and more well-known work on town planning.Book Details
