Excerpt from The Arts of Japan IN this little book I have attempted to summarise the vast amount of information upon the Art of Japan that has lately become available, much of it from native sources.

Excerpt from Arts and Crafts of Old Japan This little book is intended not for the col lector or the connoisseur, but merely for those who require an introduction to a field of art hitherto little explored but which will well repay further study. For fuller information on the subject many sources are available, but a word of caution is necessary. A bibliography of works on Japanese art would be misleading rather than useful, for much of what has been written regarding it is, as criticism, quite valueless.

Excerpt from A Glimpse at the Art of Japan The orthography of Japanese proper names varies considerably among writers, but the author has fol lowed those who seem to be the best authority; and the objects described or engraved are chiefly taken from his own little collection. It has been the nu expected interest shown in the few slight sketches of Japanese art, which he published in English and American journals several years ago, that has led to this fuller treatment of the topic.

Excerpt from Keramic Art of Japan In writing the chapters devoted to the consideration of the Japanese Keramic manufactures, great difficulties have been experienced. Every available stream of information had to be carefully traced to its source; collections had to be reached and examined, both at home and abroad; Japanese authorities had to be catecheti cally examined, and the salient points of their ofttimes conflicting statements picked out and noted; and lastly, an extensive collection, with all the links as complete as possible, bad to be formed by ourselves for reference and study. In the pages of the Work we have acknowledged the sources from which special information has been derived. It is rather remarkable that modern writers on Japan, including those who have visited and resided there, have taught us absolutely nothing relative to the Keramic industry of the country; indeed, in comparison with the labours of Kaempfer and Siebold, modern exertions in a similar direction are painfully insignificant. It is a question if, had those indefatigable men. Not existed, we should at the present time have known half what we do about the natural history of the Japanese islands, and the manners, customs, and industries of the islanders.

Excerpt from Studies in the Decorative Art of Japan I have not attempted in these pages anything approaching an exhaustive examination of the decorative art of Japan. The area it covers is so extensive thati doubt if it is possible to do more than touch lightly upon its manifold phases; for even the most diligent student there always come surprises, and the end of his labours ever recedes into the distance. The art knows no limitations, and a hundred books would not be sufficient to set it forth in all its infinite Variety. Studies, somewhat intermittent I fear, seem to me to be all that is possible. The decoration of the temples has been treated as a distinct subject for although it touches the art of the people at many points, and on one side of it reveals the historic influence of the Buddhist religion as it came to Japan through China from India, yet stands apart as an art specially Japanese, inspired by the national purposes to which it was put. I am conscious that the method I have adopted for reproducing the designs is Open to much criticism, for it is limited only to their general effect - very imperfect sketches of light and shade, leaving the student or the architect to work out the ground-plan, or scheme of construction, for himself.

Excerpt from The Flower Art of Japan In the first treatment of an art so little known, one hardly dares venture beyond the rudiments. Now, however, being assured that there are those as interested as myself, I shall endeavor to carry them farther in this delightful study, only wishing that it were possible to create a stronger desire'on the part of my readers to apply these Japanese ideas practically. For gradually we discover by the constant study of our flower arranging that we are beautifying all that touches our lives.

Excerpt from The Color-Prints of Old Japan What are they? Is a question often asked by those looking for the first time at a collection of Japanese prints. To say that they are chromoxylographs, is to give an answer strictly accurate. But as this is more concise than simple, it may be well to say in non-technical, popular language that they are prints in colors from engraved wooden blocks, as many blocks and impressions ordinarily being required as there are colors. In Europe towards the end of the eighteenth century similar prints were produced, but as their reception by the public was not such as to encourage their makers, there was no development of the art comparable with that in Japan in the same century.

Excerpt from Japan, Vol. 5: Its History, Arts, and Literature Ciple was that four-tenths of the gross produce went into the hands of the tax-collector and six tenths to the farmer. This rule applied to the rice crop only, the assessments for other kinds of produce being levied, partly in money and partly in manufactured goods, at rates often of a very arbitrary nature. Forced labour also was exacted, and tradesmen were subjected to mone tary levies as official necessity arose. Neglecting all these factors of uncertain dimensions, since they do not admit of arithmetical statement for the purposes of a general review, and taking the case of rice only, the data are that the total yield of that crop in 1867 was I54,000,000 bushels, approximately, of which the market value then ruling was pounds sterling, or yen, and it follows that the grain tax alone represented yen on the lowest calculation, the farmers' portion being Thus much premised, a basis is Obtained for' comparing the burdens of the people in ante-met)? And in port-met]? Days. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
