Ways of Seeing in Edo Japan

Credit: 3 OR 4 hours.

Focuses on modes of seeing and technologies of vision manifest in the visual arts of Edo Japan, 1615-1868. At the time, imported European instruments of seeing, such as the microscope, made possible unusual visual experiences; revivals of classical Japanese painting manipulated different ways of recreating and visualizing the past. A variety of themes, organized chronologically, will demonstrate the importance of seeing in painting and calligraphy, ceramics, woodblock prints, and architecture.

Same as EALC 402. 3 undergraduate hours. 3 or 4 graduate hours. Prerequisite: Junior standing required.
