The attire of the feudal lords and ladies of old Japan, warriors, priest, courtesans, Edo-period dandies geisha, footmen, farmers— in fact, the whole array of Kabuki's colorful characters-is discussed in fascinating detail in this Japanese Kabuki book. From kimono and armor to undergarments, from wigs to foot gear, from swords to hair garments—no aspect of costume accessories is overlooked. Textiles and textile designs, in all their profusion of weaves, colors, and patterns, are carefully taken note of, and a number of important traditional designs are illustrate. Make-up and headdress varying formats of costume for specific roles, styles of tying the obi—all are expertly described. Of the numerous books in English dealing with the Kabuki theater of Japan, none so far has devoted itself exclusively to costume. Kabuki is compelling bringing about such art forms, yet it is the costumes that create the intrinsic, eye catching spectacle. Praise for Kabuki Costume: "A product of over fourteen years of meticulous study, Shaver's unique and authoritative analysis of the labyrinthine complexities of Kabuki costumery not only provides…a valuable reference work for scholar, but also an apt introduction for anyone seeking to understand the principles of Japanese visual arts and theatrical conventions."—Choice Reviews

"Le kabuki est l'une des plus anciennes formes du théâtre traditionnel japonais. Apparu au début de l'époque d'Edo, cet art dramatique, toujours très vivant, se fonde sur un répertoire de pièces codifiées, écrites spécifiquement ou bien adaptées du théâtre nô, de récits traditionnels, et surtout du bunraku, théâtre de marionnettes. Ces représentations sont exclusivement jouées par des acteurs masculins, dont les fameux onnagata spécialisés dans les rôles de femmes, auxquels les spectateurs japonais vouent un véritable culte. Les costumes, extravagants dans leur conception, somptueux dans le choix des motifs et des tissus, et richement colorés, occupent une place centrale. Ils répondent à une symbolique très précise, révélatrice de la personnalité du rôle. Présentant les plus beaux costumes de kabuki accompagnés de leurs accessoires, illustré d'estampes anciennes et de photos d'acteurs, cet ouvrage rend hommage à cet art dramatique qui élève le théâtre et la danse à leur plus haut niveau. Il a été publié à l'occasion de l'exposition Kabuki Costumes du théâtre japonais, présentée à la Fondation Pierre Berge - Yves Saint Laurent."--P. [4] of cover.

Kabuki A Pocket Guide introduces readers to the foundations of Kabuki—its history and its actors, its acting styles and its performance, its color and music—to the sheer beauty and joy of Kabuki. Kabuki, the popular theatre of Japan, began in about 1603 and is still flourishing today. It was the entertainment of the common people as opposed to Noh, the refined theatre of the aristocracy, and is a close relative of the Bunraku puppet theater. All the actors in Kabuki, even those who play female roles, are men and plays and dances deal with the love of the heroes and villains form Japans real or legendary past. Concise enough to take to performance, this pocket guide to Kabuki provides a wealth of fascinating information about plays, the actors, and their history. As only an insider can do, the author takes us behind the scene to meet the actors, attend rehearsal, and get a first-hand look at the makeup, costumes, sets and props that go into a Kabuki performance.
