neutral MicB : Le strutture di cui si parla sono quelle del cortile interno stesso. E'una frase molto complessa ed elegante, che fa pensare a un cortile interno di un ricco palazzo, quindi più un cavedio che un cortile. Alternative per courtyard?

agree P.L.F. Persio : se è lo stesso romanzo che gira qui da un po' e che è ambientato in Russia, il cortile/courtyard va benissimo.
