This house produced many famous artists, who for a long period maintained their illustrious family name. The house of Takuma was best known as a line of Buddhist painters. At the end of this age lived Takuma Eiga, who, for the first time in history, blended the Chinese style of drawing with that of the pure Japanese school. Such a tendency at this time foretold the future ascendency of the Chinese style in the Muromachi age (13341567) and it is supposed to have been caused by the paramount influence of the Zen-shu (one of the Buddhist sects). VI. PREVAILING SENTIMENTS, MORALITY AND BUSHIDO. It appears to be an immutable law of nature that as material civilization advances and Society becomes more complex and intricate in its organization, the pernicious effects of luxury and dissipation tend to undermine the moral stamina of the community. The insidious effects of ease and voluptuousness are more quickly observed in the case of townsmen than in that of the inhabitants of the country districts; and while we may not be able to agree that " civilization tends to corrupt men, as large cities vitiate the air," it is the result of universal experience that no sooner are the city dwellers accustomed to general self-indulgence, and a standard of high living, than they become excessively fond of ostentation and pretence. This breeds a fickle and insincere disposition among all classes, which finally results in the decadence of the native and perhaps even culminates in national disintegration and extinction. The inhabitants of the eight provinces to the east of the Hakone mountains--collectively known as the Kwanto, --being far removed from the Imperial City of the West, had not as yet been influenced by the pomp and extravagance of...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Feudal Kamakura: Outline Sketch of the History of Kamakura From 1186 to 1333 Living in the old town of Kamakura, I have naturally become intensely interested in its ancient history, and this little book practically contains a few stray leaves from my note book relative to the rise of the Feudal system in what is known as the "Kamakura Age," which term is applied to the period commencing in 1186 and ending in 1333. No attempt has been made at literary embellishment, and I have merely jotted down, in simple language, such facts as have been brought to my notice in the course of reading up the subject. If the results of my study are deemed worthy of consideration by persons interested in Japanese history, it will afford me considerable gratification. There is absolutely nothing new in the book, and everything it contains has been culled from existing Japanese and foreign sources. All I have done is to collate the facts and present them in an English dress. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Japan has been among the first of the handful of countries to move "beyond modern," and in this third edition of a much-praised book, Ardath Burks brings the blur of the nation's rapid change into focus. In his newly revised and updated Japan, Professor Burks also traces the history of the Japanese, exploring their traditions, their continuity, and their cultural heritage. He devotes a chapter to the remarkable "introspection boom" (Nihonron): the Japanese asking, "Who are we Japanese?" In discussing the country's swift modernization, the author looks not only at the initial transition from primary agriculture to an industrial economy but also at the current evolution into a service-centered society. On both domestic and international levels, the book evaluates the maturing of Japanese industry and its growing investment abroad, as well as the global tensions fueled by Japan's enormous trade surpluses. In response to the intense trade pressure it feels, the country is beginning to shift from export-driven growth to a consumer-oriented economy, a shift that will demand the building of a heretofore neglected, yet essential, infrastructure of housing and transportation. The author analyzes domestic political developments including the regime of Nakasone Yasuhiro and the fall of Takeshita Noboru and Uno Sousuke, precipitated by financial scandal within the majority Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). Burks assesses the formidable tasks facing the revamped ruling LDP as its new generation of younger leaders grapples with an evolving economy, an expanding regional role, and the dissatisfaction of women and young people who have begun to rebel against the growth ethic and their marginalized role in society. In his well-drawn, lucid portrait of this complex country, Professor Burks reflects on Japan as a nation in historical transition, envisioning a postindustrial future filled with friction and promise. As he writes in his introduction, "Americans and Japanese too often look

Book excerpt: "This extensively illustrated catalogue is published in conjunction with the first comprehensive exhibition devoted to the arts of the samurai, including the finest examples of swords - the spirit of the samurai - as well as sword mountings and fittings, armor and helmets, saddles, textiles, and paintings. The works in the catalogue, drawn from public and private collections in Japan, include 34 officially designated National Treasures and 64 Important Cultural Properties, the largest number ever to be shown together at one time. Dating from the 5th to the early 20th century, these majestic objects offer a complete picture of samurai culture and its unique blend of the martial and the refined." "Many of the greatest Japanese swordsmiths are represented in this volume, from early masters such as Yasuie (12th century) and Tomomitsu (14th century) to the Edo-period smiths Nagasone Kotetsu and Kiyomaro. The blades by these and other masters, cherished as much for their beauty as for their cutting efficiency, were equipped with elaborate hilts and scabbards prized for their exquisite craftsmanship and fine materials such as silk, rayskin, gold, lacquer, and certain alloys unique to Japan. Japanese armor is also fully surveyed, from the rarest iron armor of the Kofun period (5th century) to the inventive ceremonial helmets made toward the end of the age of the samurai." --Book Jacket.

Download or read book East Asia written by Hugh Dyson Walker and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Histories of East Asia traditionally emphasize China and Japan, and neglect Korea and Vietnam. Essentially, 20th century East Asia is re-written into the past, as though China and Japan was always the core of East Asian development. This is not at all how East Asia developed. Chinese prehistoric cultures became historic in the 18th century B.C.! Japan was not part of East Asia for over 2300 more years. By studying periods of Chinese unity and disunity, and their effects on China s neighbors, Korea and Vietnam, a distinct culture zone, East Asia, gradually emerged, and slowly included Japan. The main elements of East Asia cultural, social, political, philosophical, religious and linguistic were derived from China, but the others were not minor replicas of China. Each was unique: its people ethnically distinct, from China and each other; its native language, and linguistic blend with Chinese, also unique. Korea and Vietnam resisted Chinese colonization, but adopted and adapted advance Chinese elements to their own needs. Emerging later, Japan underwent wholesale adoption of Tang China s advances, replicated in the 19th century, when Japan was the first East Asian country to modernize. Spanning some thirty-eight centuries, from the 18th century B.C. to 2012 A.D., this diversity with common elements derived from China, is a major theme of this work. It is often overlooked by those who prefer general views, based on surface impressions, to more complex realities. The former often lead to mistakes; the latter become the basis for more sound understanding. After all, these four countries and people share the eastern end of the Eurasian continent, yet each country s geographic situation is also unique. As the twenty-first century continues to unfold, this new approach to East Asia should help to produce clearer and more accurate understanding of this important world region.
