Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japanese Collectors and What They Collect The Marquis and his toys are typical of a certain high class of collectors. There are many such. They have means, they have taste, they have good advisers. They go in for all sorts of things. Their collections range from veritable museums to a few choice and beautiful things, often family heirlooms, which no money can buy. Mr. Okura's collection is famous. It comprises all the choice things of Japanese art paintings, ceramics, wood-carving, lacquer, metal work; in number, beauty and value of the objects, it outranks many a famous public museum. At the outbreak of the J apanese-russian war, he was minded to sell it, in order to turn the proceeds into the na tional war-chest. It required strong, friendly in fluences to prevent his doing so. It is permanently displayed in a series of rooms; it is in no sense public and pay-guests would not be welcome. But it is gladly Opened to such visitors as are recommended as com petent to appreciate and enjoy it. We have said that his collection covers a wide range of objects. Most wealthy collectors in Japan have some specialty - this one collects strange objects, another mirrors, another choice lacquer; hundreds collect swords or tsnba (sword-guards), or the other delicate and beau tiful adornments of metalwork that accompany and form parts of swords; armor is a favorite subject for collectors - and fine ceramics, tea ceremonial out fits, wood carvings, Buddhist objects. Everyone has some kakemono (hanging scroll pictures), and true collections of them are innumerable. Today there are collectors of color-prints in Japan, but in the past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambiguous Bodies draws from theories of the grotesque to examine many of the strange and extraordinary creatures and phenomena in the premodern Japanese tales called setsuwa. Grotesque representations in general typically direct our attention to unfinished and unrefined things; they are marked by an earthy sense of the body and an interest in the physical. Because they have many meanings, they can both sustain and undermine authority. This book aims to make sense of grotesque representations in setsuwa—animated detached body parts, unusual sexual encounters, demons and shape-shifting or otherwise wondrous animals—and, in a broader sense, to show what this type of critical focus can reveal about the mentality of Japanese people in the ancient, classical, and early medieval periods. It is the first study to place Japanese tales of this nature, which have received little critical attention in English, within a sophisticated theoretical framework. Li masterfully and rigorously focuses on these fascinating tales in the context of the historical periods in which they were created and compiled.
