Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume presents comprehensive research on how southern European Catholics and the Japanese confronted each other, interacted and mutually experienced religious otherness in early modern times.In their highly variable and asymmetric relations, during which the politi cal-military elites of Japan at times not only favoured, but also opposed and strictly controlled the European presence, missionaries - particularly the Jesuits - tried to negotiate this power balance with their interlocutors.This collection of essays analyses religious and cultural interactions between the Christian missions and the Buddhist sects through processes of coopera tion, acceptance, confrontation and rejection, dialogue and imposition, which led to the creation of new relational spaces and identities.…

Format in-4°"carré"( 25,5 x 24,7 cm )( 1160 gr ). ------ 175 pages richement illustrées. ************************ 4ème de Couverture : "" Dès 1543 - date de l'arrivée des premiers Européens en terre nipponne - les Japonais entrèrent en contact régulier avec les Nanban et ce, jusqu'à la fermeture du pays à partir des années 1630. Ces " barbares du sud ", des commerçants et des missionnaires en provenance majoritairement du Portugal, in?uencèrent l'art japonais des xvie et xviie siècles, au point de donner naissance à un courant artistique qui perdurera dans les années 1500-1600. Les peintures ornant les byôbu (paravents) nanban, véritables tableaux révélant un croisement et un choc de civilisations, sont écrasantes par leur beauté. À travers le travail de deux écoles, l'école Tosa et l'école Kanô, se dessine sous nos yeux ébahis l'histoire de l'arrivée des Portugais d'un point de vue oriental. Tantôt critiques, tantôt festifs et joyeux, les byôbu mettent en images les prémices de l'occidentalisation de l'Asie. Chefs-d'ouvre des paravents nanban présentera les treize byôbu les plus importants et intéressants de l'époque de l'art nanban. Ils seront accompagnés d'un texte très riche sur la passionnante histoire de la rencontre - commerciale, religieuse et culturelle -entre l'Europe et le Japon à cette époque. Nous avons réunis dans ce beau livre des paravents du Musée municipal de Kobé et du Museu national d'Arte Ancien de Lisbonne (où se trouvent les deux plus importantes collections d'art Nanban), mais également du Victoria & Albert Museum de Londres, du Rijksmuseum d'Amsterdam, du Musée de Nagazaki, du Nanban Bukakan d'Osaka, du Musée Idemitsu de Tokyo, du Musée Guimet et du Musée Soares dos Reis, ainsi qu'un inédit provenant d'une collection privée aux États-Unis. Considérée comme une des spécialistes de l'art nanban au Portugal, Alexandra Curvelo, professeur émérite à l'Universidade Nova de Lisbonne, propose aussi une description et analyse de chaque paravent et révèle avec brio une époque encore inconnue de l'histoire et de l'histoire de l'art de l'archipel japonais.

Several scratches on the back cover. Interior with minor signs of wear.; Catalogue from an exhibition held at Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga from 14 June to 25 September 2022.; Beyond the basic activities of subsistence, artistic expression and games are perhaps the most decisive human endeavours in the process of civilisational evolution. The game, a focus of anthropological study, which rightly highlights its social function, being dissociated from material interests or objective utility, became essential to applied mathematics and, from there, through the theory of games, later extended to the most diverse disciplinary fields, from economy, biology and physics to political science and computing. The human being's vocation as a homo ludens is thus ancient, immemorial, with a history still to be written, but with East Asia as one of its mythical birthplaces. The first globalisation, which the Portuguese initiated in the 15th century, bringing the known continents into closer contact, was responsible for unprecedented commercial exchange at the same time as making possible an intensive circulation of culture between East and West. Therefore, we talk about crossing games, referring to those that went, those that came, and all the cultural exchanges to which they gave rise. But games are not just luxury products, artworks and fine craftsmanship, made of noble and rare materials. Games also allowed for the assimilation of forms of rationality and cultural expression, opportunities for socialising and contact, which we felt were worth exploring and bringing to light in this exhibition, in truth a rather unusual and, among us, almost unprecedented." excerpt from the introductory text by Joao Carlos Santos, Director-General for Cultural Heritage.; "Mainly sourced from private collections, this exhibition is a unique opportunity to get to know and enjoy a group of objects that are rarely accessible, the quality of which is immediately perceptible in the diversified interpretation of the codified forms of each game. Bringing it to the public would not have been possible without the generosity of those who loaned pieces, institutions but mainly private collectors - Ana and António Horta Osório, Jorge Welsh, Teresa Paramés." excerpt by the introductory text by Joaquim Oliveira Caetano, Director of the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. English text.; Hardcover.; 23.5 x 29.7 cm.; 1.4 Kg.; 182 pages with 256 colour illustrations.; LIMITED EDITION of 200 COPIES.; Unfolding Stories: The Dutch Tribute and West Lake Kuancai, so-called Coromandel, Lacquer Screen, is a monograph dedicated to a rare and extraordinary kuancai folding screen produced during the Kangxi period (1662-1722). It is considered by many as one of the most important kuancai folding screens so far recorded, certainly the most important example of the few recorded depicting European figures. Illustrating the diversity and iconographic richness found in kuancai lacquer, it depicts two intricate and masterfully executed scenes of The Dutch Tribute and the West Lake in Hangzhou. Featuring articles by three scholars, this publication seeks to cover what is currently known about kuancai lacquer, the present screen, its historical context and the parallels with Japanese folding screens, which, from the 15th century onward, often also depicted maritime trade and foreign merchants - including the Chinese, Portuguese, and later, the Dutch.…
