Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This book examines the free play of children in middle childhood, exploring their actual play activities in the school playground. It counters the widespread concern about the supposed decline in children's play with fresh evidence from Australia, Canada, France, Israel and Britain of the vibrancy, creativity and variety of free play activities, particularly in the school playground. The detailed case studies discuss the many aspects of children's play traditions, including the use of playground space, the ways in which children learn and adapt games and rhymes in multicultural and monocultural settings, children's creative and subversive use of mass media items, and gendered dimensions of play. Emphasis is on children's own perceptions, the importance of free play at a time when it is increasingly under threat, and the benefits that an informed appreciation of contemporary children's play can bring to teaching, the management of school playtime, and intercultural and intergenerational understanding. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Interior as new. Very good condition overall.; Catalogue from the exhibition Trade Taste and Transformation: Jingdezhen Porcelain for Japan, 1620-1645, held at China Institute Gallery, New York from February 2-June 10, 2006.; "It gives us great pleasure to open this special year with the spring exhibition Trade Taste and Transformation: Jingdezhen Porcelain for Japan, 1620-1645, which presents a special moment in Chinese trade history. These export ceramics tell us more than we expect about two different cultures and leave us with a new level of appreciation for the role of commerce in the transformation of mundane objects. In the declining decades of the Ming dynasty, the Japanese market provided much needed revenue for the kilns at Jingdezhen. The Chinese potters filled the orders from Japan with blue-and-white (kosometsuke) and enamel-decorated (ko'akae) wares made as efficiently and cheaply as possible, often with technical imperfections not tolerated among their domestic patrons. But these imper- fections suited the aesthetic taste of Japan's tea masters, and these wares, which were mainly used for the tea ceremony, are treasured to this day by Japanese collectors." excerpt from the introductory message by Virginia A. Kamsky Chair, Board of Trustees and Sara Judge McCalpin, President of China Institute.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. English text; Hardcover (cloth) with dust jacket; 21.7 x 29 cm; 0.643 Kg; 102 pages with black-and-white illustrations.; Used book with minor signs wear on the dust jacket and interior.Very good condition overall.; The papers included in Volume 53 of the Transactions of Oriental Ceramic Society cover a variety of both media and regions. The significant paper on Neolithic Jade Carving in China by Dr Watt will be of special interest to those concerned with new discoveries of this material. John Guy's paper on the decorated Vietnamese ceramic tiles located in mosques in Java breaks new ground on the subject of artitic transmissions and on trade and is valuable for the historical insights. A far cry from this is Ju.ia B. Curtis paper on Chinese export porcelain found in West Virginia, a paper with interesting highlights on the social history of its users. For lovers of Japanese art, especially lacquer, Julia Hutt paper on the Gifu Inro tells a particularly intriguing story of the manufacture and identity of a large set of these objects. The volume is completed with a slightly abridged version of Philip Allen's paper on tea and Yixing wares in Europe, based on a datable collection of teapots from that famous kiln.

Good condition overall.; In June 1644, the Manchu conquerors of China entered Beijing and named a five-year-old boy to be the Shunzhi emperor, the first ruler of the Qing dynasty. This groundbreaking book and exhibition is the first to focus on porcelains from Shunzhi's reign (1644-61), which until recently have been little known and studied, as have other seventeenth-century ceramics from the great kiln center in Jingdezhen. New research, publications, and the coming to light of more high-quality dated pieces from the Shunzhi era have forced a re-examination of the so-called Transitional Period (1620-83). This catalogue and the travelling exhibition it documents brings together for the first time a collection of outstanding porcelain vessels from the Shunzhi reign, combined with recent advances in knowledge of the art and history of the early Qing. This book includes 87 examples of Jingdezhen porcelains, comprising a wide variety of types, decorative styles, and subjects, and including a number with dates in the Shunzhi era. The texts by leading scholars and a collector of seventeenth-century ceramics shed much new light on ceramics and their historical context. Six thematic essays and entries for each work discuss the evolution of porcelain and their markets during the period, new insights from the study of decorative subjects and calligraphy, the history of the Shunzhi reign, and the collecting of seventeenth-century porcelains in the West. New findings include the identification of many of the animals, plants, and scenes from history and literature painted on the porcelain.This book is an important addition to the libraries of those interested in the effects of politics on art, and collectors and students of porcelain and Chinese art, especially of the Qing dynasty.
