Softcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Abnutzungen. During the Edo period in eighteenth-century Japan, erotic paintings and prints known today as shunga were popular among both men and women. Yet, prior to Tim Screech's definitive study, Sex and the Floating World , no one had attempted to situate these overtly sexual images within the contexts of the sexual, gender, or class tensions of the time. Newly revised and expanded, this second edition of Sex and the Floating World examines how and why these images were made and used. Along the way, Screech illuminates a provocative world of sexual fantasy in Edo Japan. 'With concern, proportion, wit and a bit of levity, the author of this authoritative and invaluable contribution to scholarship has given us the book for which we have long waited."-- Japan Times "Screech provides a fascinating and informative introduction to the social and sexual habits of pre-modern Japan, copiously illustrated and full of witty anecdotes as well as solid scholarly research. The ideal bedtime read?"-- Insight Japan.

Screech, Timon. The lens within the heart: the western scientific gaze and popular imagery in later Edo Japan. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2002, 2nd edition, xxiii, 305pp., sewn PAPERBACK, warped copy, glossy paper slightly wavy in different directions, book does not lie flat, irritating damage, otherwise the book appears little used if at all, very good for reading or study despite defect. "It has long been assumed that Japan's closed country policy meant that the country was isolated from the influence of the outside, and in particular, the western world. However, this study of 18th century Japan, using sources wholly unstudied since their writing, reveals the profound influence that the introduction of western technology and scientific instruments including glass, lenses and mirrors, had on Japanese notions of sight, and how this change in perception was reflected most clearly in popular culture. Screech offers interpretations of 18th century thought through popular objects, and makes propositions which many scholars considered groundbreaking on the book's first publication in 1996. The conclusions reached here have yet to be substantially challenged." - CONTENTS: 1 Trade and Culture in the Eighteenth Century 6 -- 2 The "Batavian Temperament" and its Critics 31 -- 3 Mechanics and Motions 61 -- 4 Machinery for Pictures 94 -- 5 Seeing In 133 -- 6 The Eye and the Lens 166 -- 7 The View from On High 212. 9780824825942 ISBN 0824825942.

In Japanese; introduction, one article and section commentaries also in English. 'During the latter half of the Edo period, microscopes, telescopes, and other optical devices imported from abroad overturned the conventional thinking about vision in Japan. Interest in images reflected in mirrors and shadow pictures soared, and artists created many works that focused on those intriguing visual effects. Knowledge of Western-style linear perspective and of bird s-eye view images set off their own revolution in Edo painting. This exhibition introduces the new visual culture that flourished in eighteenth and nineteenth century Japan through the work of Katsushika Hokusai, Utagawa Hiroshige, Shiba Kokan, and other artists.'.

Summary:"In this analysis of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Japanese culture, Timon Screech reassesses the career of the chief minister Matsudaira Sadanobu and locates it within broader cultural and intellectual concerns. Aware of how visual representations could support or undermine regimes, and of how European monarchies were using imagery in the service of power, Sadanobu promoted painting to advance his own political aims and improve the shogunate's image."--Jacket.
