A History of Japanese Colour-Prints by W. Von Seidlitz Pdf

Excerpt from A History of Japanese Colour-Prints: With Illustrations in Colour and Black and White The first comprehensive survey of Japanese wood-engraving, Anderson's monograph in the Porgfo/z'o, appeared in 1895. The first attempt to write a history of this art was Strange's totally inadequate Japanese Illustration of 1897. Unfortunately, Strange had published before he was able to take advantage of the new light thrown upon his subject by Fenollosa, in his illuminating Catalogue of 1896, Tim Master: of Ukiyoye. The only remaining sources of information for the student were a number of scattered articles, monographs, exhibition catalogues, and sale catalogues, and it seemed to me that I might do a useful work by gathering together all this disjointed learning into a coherent whole. Japanese art has become an element in our European culture it supplies certain needs of our age, and makes distinctly for its progress. But in order to appreciate Japanese wood-engraving to the full, we must know the inter relation between the various artists, and the successive stages of development in their art; we also require a criterion by which to test individual essays, that we may not rest content with weak and imitative work when the best is within reach. A survey of Japanese wood-engraving which would serve these ends was the task I accordingly set before me.

Life of Japan (Classic Reprint) by Masuji Miyakawa Pdf

Excerpt from Life of Japan Although much that may be called phenomenal has happened since the publication of the first edition in July, 1907, nothing has occurred which seems to the author to require any alteration in the substance of the work, though he has occasionally modified the form and expression and amplified somewhat the views stated in the first edition. Viscount Kaneko has kindly written the introduction to this edition, so the author will say but little. The American loversi of literature on Japan will remember the last and perhaps the greatest work of the American writer, Lafcadio Hearn, "Japan," which created a sensation in its exposition of the so-called confidential letter written by Herbert Spencer to Viscount Kaneko, - a confidential letter aimed at the late Prince Ito. This incident has nothing to do with this work, though prefaced by the receiver of the Spencer letter, according to Lafcadio Hearn. The Viscount's relation to the book is that of a critic and not that of a writer of any portion of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
