Focussing on the concept of Gan Eden in Judaism, the Garden of Eden in Christianity and earthy paradise of the Islamic chahar bagh garden; and expanding out to discuss mediæval monastic gardens and the hortus conclusus - how did the Virgin Mary become associated with the beloved in the Song of Solomon?
