Download or read book Japan and American Children s Books written by Sybille Jagusch and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japanese-American relations have been the object of considerable study from the 1850s, when Commodore Matthew Perry used gunboat diplomacy to break the seclusion of an island nation. Japan and American Children's Books: A Journey explores this relationship from a unique perspective, examining representations of Japan's history and culture in American children's literature from the early nineteenth century to the beginning of the twenty-first. Sybille A. Jagusch traces depictions of Japan from their first appearances in early European children's books to their emergence in the pages of those published in the United States. A carefully curated collection of text excerpts and images reveals evolving American perceptions of Japan and Japanese people over the course of more than two centuries. Drawn from rare and often long-forgotten children's books in the collections of the Library of Congress, the early excerpts express assumptions and stereotypes held by western writers and illustrators whose work was meant to share insight into the cultures and practices of a people about whom they knew little. They include passages from the illustrated journal of a boy who accompanied Commodore Perry on his first voyage to Japan; selections from romanticized late nineteenth-century travelogues--some penned by writers who had never visited Japan; and excerpts from stories featured in St. Nicholas, the influential American children's magazine that was published from the early 1870s to the 1940s. Later samples reveal the waxing and waning relationship between the two countries amid the evolution of the children's publishing genre, which met the complexities and strains of a rapidly changing world with increasingly sophisticated and stylized accounts that laid bare the grim realities of war, racism, and annihilation: the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the nuclear holocaust of Hiroshima, and the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. The book's final chapters highlight the unique contributions of Japanese American authors and illustrators in recounting their personal experiences and those of their families. A journey through the fits and starts of cultural awakening, this carefully curated sampler underscores the challenges of trying to understand and portray people from another culture. It also showcases the talent of more than a century of children's book writers and illustrators, many of whose work has languished without recognition until now.

Download or read book Japanese Photobooks of the 1960s and 70s written by 金子隆一 and published by Aperture Direct. This book was released on 2009 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1960s and 70s in Japan, the photobookthrough a combination of excellence in design, printing, and materialsovertook prints as a popular mode of artistic dissemination. This process has expanded to an extent where any discussion of Japanese photography now has to include the book work. Today, the most famous workssuch as Nobuyoshi Arakis Sentimental Journey and Eikoh Hosoes Man and Womancontinue to inspire artists internationally. Japanese Photobooks of the 1960s and 70s presents forty definitive publications from the era, piecing together an otherwise invisible history that has played out in tandem with photography as a medium. Included are some of the most influential works along with forgotten gems, placed within a larger historical and sociological context. Each book, beautifully reproduced through numerous spreads, is accompanied by an in-depth explanatory text and sidebars highlighting important editors, designers, themes, and periodicals. Lavishly produced, this unique publication is an ode to the distinct character and influence of the Japanese photobook.

Download or read book Research Guide to Japanese Film Studies written by Abé Markus Nornes and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Research Guide to Japanese Film Studies provides a snapshot of all the archival and bibliographic resources available to students and scholars of Japanese cinema. Among the nations of the world, Japan has enjoyed an impressively lively print culture related to cinema. The first film books and periodicals appeared shortly after the birth of cinema, proliferating wildly in the 1910s with only the slightest pause in the dark days of World War II. The numbers of publications match the enormous scale of film production, but with the lack of support for film studies in Japan, much of it remains as uncharted territory, with few maps to negotiate the maze of material. This book is the first comprehensive guide ever published for approaching the complex archive for Japanese cinema. It lists all the libraries and film archives in the world with significant collections of film prints, still photographs, archival records, books, and periodicals. It provides a full annotated bibliography of the core books and magazines for the field. And it supplies hints for how to find and access materials for any research project. Above and beyond that, Nornes and Gerow’s Research Guide to Japanese Film Studies constitutes a comprehensive overview of the impressive dimensions and depth of the print culture surrounding Japanese film, and a guideline for future research in the field. This is an essential book for anyone seriously thinking about Japan and its cinema.
