Description

This scholarly examination explores how Japan and Japanese culture have been represented and perceived through the lens of Japonisme, a movement that profoundly influenced Western art and aesthetics during the 19th and 20th centuries. The book investigates the complex interplay between Japanese artistic traditions and their interpretation by Western audiences, addressing how cultural identity and otherness shaped these representations. Published by Amsterdam University Press and available through Routledge, this work offers critical analysis of the self-perception of Japanese culture versus external Western perspectives, making it an essential resource for students of art history, cultural studies, and East-West cultural exchange. The text examines both historical context and theoretical frameworks that define how Japanese aesthetics were understood, adopted, and transformed within Western artistic movements, providing readers with comprehensive insight into one of history's most significant cross-cultural artistic phenomena.
