Topic: Japonism



  
 Japonism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Japonism started with the frenzy to collect Japanese art, particularly print art (ukiyoe), of which the first samples were to be seen in Paris.
Japonism (also in French Japonisme and Japonaiserie) is the influence of Japanese art on Western, primarily French, artists.
In terms of music, one can say that Giacomo Puccini used Japonism, as he showed in his famous Madama Butterfly.

Japonism was thus born out of the fascination exercised by books, etchings and "industrial arts" from these remote islands.
The word "Japonism " appeared in the 1870's to describe the considerable influence exercised by Japan on the art and artists of that time.
The exhibition illustrated this artistic phenomenon by opposing Japanese and Western "japonist" works.

 H-Net Review: Patricia Welch on Orienting Arthur Waley: Japonism, Orientalism, and the Creation of Japanese Literature ...
He maintains that Waley's interest in Japanese literature was a product of nineteenth-century japonism and Anglo-Japanese imperialisms, as well as of three aspects of his identity: his Judaism, ambiguous sexuality, and socialist leanings.
Japanese art demonstrated to elite Western viewers Western superiority, while to the Japanese, their own art and literature was seen to be the proving grounds upon which their "civilization" could be defined.
De Gruchy relates the instrumental role played by the Japan Society of London (established 1892) in simultaneously promoting these understandings through the implicit linking of japonism and economic imperialism.

The French impressionists such as Manet, Monet, Degas, Bonnard, Lautrec, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Debussy, Proust were all fascinated by the Japanese paintings and the influence was later called "Japonism."

At the same time, the original concept of the ensemble was evolved into WaFoo's mission statement.

 Orienting Arthur Waley: Japonism, Orientalism, and the Creation of Japanese Literature in English - PowerBookSearch!
John W. de Gruchy is associate professor of English language and literature at Kagoshima Immaculate Heart College.
But de Gruchy (English language and literature, Kagoshima Immaculate Heart College) argues that in fact he followed a distinctly Anglo- European tradition of orientalism, paid much less attention to Pound than Pound liked to believe, and was a key figure in the English modernist tradition of Japanese culture.
He examines how these social contexts influenced Waley's work, and he further locates Waley's Japanese translations within the political contexts of the japonism movement, British socialism and imperialism, and the development of Japanese studies in England.
