| Research Abstract |
The birth of the discipline of art history has been the subject of considerable interest in recent years, together with its flfSt inception in Japan. Art history came into existence here some century ago, and it is instructive at this juncture to reflect on how the discipline, its vocabulary and presuppositions grew and gained acceptance. Art history emerged within a rhetoric of modernity. A consideration of issues relating to such points will be of value in defining the field in the twenty-frrst century, and identifying our future aspirations. This research will be based in the discipline of art history, but will draw widely on other fields, including aesthetics, modernization theory Japanese literature, etc. The result of this research is to offer leads in the rethinking art history as it is practiced in Japan.
