Описание: Elegant representations of nature and the four seasons populate a wide range of Japanese genres and media. In "Japan and the Culture of the Four Seasons," Haruo Shirane shows how, when, and why this practice developed and explicates the richly encoded social, religious, and political meanings of this imagery. Shirane discusses a wide array of representations of nature in the Japanese arts: textual (poetry, chronicles, tales), cultivated (gardens, flower arrangement), material (kimonos, screens), performative (noh, festivals), and gastronomic (tea ceremony, food rituals). He reveals how this kind of "secondary nature," which flourished in Japan`s urban environment, fostered and idealized a sense of harmony with the natural world just at the moment when nature began to recede from view. Illuminating the deeper meaning behind Japanese aesthetics and artifacts, Shirane also clarifies the use of natural and seasonal topics and the changes in their cultural associations and functions across history, genre, and community over more than a millennium. In this fascinating book, the four seasons are revealed to be as much a cultural construction as a reflection of the physical world.

Описание: The new photo-illustrated magazines of the 1920s traded in images of an ideal modernity, promising motorised leisure, scientific progress, and social and sexual emancipation. This is a pioneering history of these periodicals, focusing on two of the leading European titles: the German monthly UHU, and the French news journal VU.This book is the first major study of UHU, and the first scholarly work on VU in English. It explores, in particular, the striking use of regularity and repetition in photographs of modernity, reading these repetitious images as symbolic of modernist ideals of social order in the aftermath of the First World War. The book’s novel methodology, called pattern theory, represents a cautious, empirical attempt to apply the science of perceptual organisation to critical practice. Modernist Magazines and the Social Ideal provides synoptic accounts of interwar magazine culture, followed by detailed case studies of UHU and VU, as representative of the broad class of popular titles launched in the 1920s. Comparisons and contrasts with rival publications are woven into the book’s thematic chapters, which describe the evolution of the two magazines’ photography in the tumultuous years up to 1933. A final chapter considers the visual culture of popular magazines in the era of Nazism and the Popular Front.
