Comune di Trieste invites everyone on a walk through the Botanical Gardens this Monday, 29 August at 10.30 am to discover the garden’s treasures in the company of Shakerspeare’s characters.

A walk in the Botanical Garden of Trieste, to see and smell the flowers and plants described by Shakespeare in his works.

Shakespeare knew well the importance of botanics in our lives and he well described it through Iago’s words:

Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens, to the which our wills are gardeners. So that if we will plant nettles or sow lettuce, set hyssop and weed up thyme, supply it with one gender of herbs or distract it with many—either to have it sterile with idleness, or manured with industry—why, the power and corrigible authority of this lies in our wills.
