Abstract
The paper deals with symbolic properties of the concept GARDEN as presented in English and Russian world-views. Culturally, gardens are opposed to forests and are correlated to parks, and various types of food and flowers growing. Perceptive characteristics of a garden in the English world-view are mostly connected with it as part of home adjoining a house, whereas in Russian descriptions of gardens we can often see abandoned old gardens as symbols of a lost happy life. Evaluative features of a garden allude to the Biblical description of paradise.
