Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research is an attempt to clarify the interactions between the works of Western and Japanese historians of Japanese arts during the transitional period from amateurism to Japanese studies (1880-1920). The results are given in seven papers and one book.We focused on institutions, collectors and historians, as well as on the main periodicals. We analyzed the publications written in Western languages by Japanese art historians. This investigation visualized the life and works of four art historians: Georges de Tressan, Oskar Munsterberg, Raphael Petrucci and Henri L. Joly, referencing the primary documents such as letters, notes, and photographs. The lists of bibliographies of these persons have also been drawn up. We now understand the characteristics of the studies of yamatoe, Muromachi ink painting and ancient Chinese paintings, as well as that of sword-guards written by these four historians and others, for example: L. Binyon, H. P. Bowie, W. Cohn, Seiichi Taki, Kyusaku Akiyama.
