Sprache: Deutsch fester Pappband 4;; 154 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel einer Privatbibliothek auf Haupttitel; Deutsche Bearbeitung von Prof. Dr. W. Speiser; Fotos von den behandelten Kunstwerken auf Kunstdruckpapier, teils in Farbe, teil schwarzweiss; - Dieses Buch widmet sich den in Japan ĞFrühlingsbildernğ, SHUNGA, genannten Darstellungen der Liebe und des Sexus, die eine Provinz im Reiche der japanischen Kunst ausmachen. Es ist dabei keineswegs unsere Absicht, irgend etwas Herabsetzendes über dieses Land zu äußern, das nur Respekt verdient. Die Freuden des Fleisches sind der ganzen Welt gemeinsam, und die Künstler haben sie in verhüllter oder in freier, offener Weise überall gepriesen. Eine Ausstellung von Malern unserer Zeit im Museum Galliera von Paris, im Jahre 1963, hatte sich zum Thema das ĞPaarğ gewählt und widmete sich ausdrücklich den Manifestationen einer mit allen Freiheiten dargestellten Liebe. In der Ausstellung wirkte besonders erstaunlich der japanische Einfluß bei zwei Bildern, das erste, von Pierre Ambrogiani, zeigte eine Frau im Kampf mit rundköpfigen, schnabelbewehrten Ungeheuern, die sie mit Froschhänden bedrängten ; das zweite, von Yves Brayer, stellte eine Vereinigung auf einem galoppierenden Pferde dar, jenes Motiv, das uns in Japan wie im China der Mongolenzeit begegnet. Nach ĞEROS KALOSğ, ĞROMA AMORğ und ĞKAMA KALAğ wollen wir uns auch hier mit dem Gegenstand ohne Verfälschung und Entstellung bekannt machen, wobei wir uns auf Vorstellungen beschränken, die sich seit der gesellschaftlichen Revolution im Japan des 17. Jahrhunderts vollzogen haben. Unser Dank gebührt allen Kennern und Gelehrten, die uns großzügig geholfen und mit ihrem Rat unterstützt haben : Mr. Perry T Rathbone, Direktor des Museums in Boston ; Mr. Robert T Paine, Mr. Hsien-Chi Tseng und Mr. Alan Priest, Konservatoren am gleichen Museum ; Mr. John A. Pope, vom Museum in Washington ; den Herren Serge Elissie und Vadime Elisseeff, Professoren an der Ecole des Hautes Etudes, sowie den Herren Pierre Landy, Toussaint und A. Brunet. - .

Hardcover. Condition: vg. First edition. Folio. 157, [1]pp. Original illustrated dust-jacket over tan cloth with gold lettering on front cover and spine. Book housed in original slipcase. Illustrated title-page protected with a tissue-guard. Fascinating work closely tracing the development of Shunga, a branch of pictorial art that glorifies the erotic. Shunga meaning "Spring Pictures" or "Sex Pictures". It captured the spirit of the sex act that in Japanese eyes was simply the joyful union of the sexes, a natural function that represented man's greatest pleasure - almost his raison d'etre! In this book, Grosbois, one-time director of the French-Japanese Institute at Kyoto, has done a remarkable job of placing the Shunga, the erotic prints, within the context of a culture that that's distinctly non-Western. He makes frequent reference to literary works, including some by Saikaku, that the eager amateur student may have missed. He notes the wars, Western contacts, and other social upheavals that elicited and shaped these wonderful portrayals of sexuality. And, above all, he presents over 150 works of classic erotic art, ranging from the mythical (p.114) and literary, to the familiar (as in the cleanup tissues of p.135), exaggerated (p.61-63), multiple (p.111), or hilarious (p. 130). This work is profusely illustrated with numerous tipped-in color plates and b/w plates. 6 of the color plates are small fold-outs. Minor age-wear on dust-jacket with minor soiling on spine and slight age-toning on back cover. Minor age-toning along paper margin. Dust-jacket in overall good+, binding and interior in very good condition.
