The Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Minoan civilizations may have earlier beginnings, but none of these has survived as a motivating force in modern times. In even the most advanced present~day arts of China, Korea, and Japan the lineage is quite apparent, and it goes as far back as the Neolithic cultures that flourished in those areas while the Great Pyramids of Egypt were still new and Stonehenge had not yet been built. Professor Munsterberg of the State University of New York (New Paltz) has made a lifelong study of the arts of Eastern Asia and has written and lectured widely on the subject in Japan, Europe, and the United States. In this admirable survey he condenses the whole history of those arts, showing how forms and techniques originated and developed; how Korea acted as a bridge in the transmission of ideas from China to Japan; how outside influences, particularly the introduction of Buddhism from India, affected and transformed the arts throughout the area; and how each of the three national regions, while influencing and being influenced by the others, created its own individual expression. Inevitably, it is the art of ceramics that dominates the story, for it is here that the Far Eastern artistic genius has always excelled. But the splendid array of illustrations presented in this book ~ most of them in color, and painstakingly assembled from public and private collections all over the world ~cover the whole range of artistic endeavor and are, in themselves, proof enough of the incomparable and continuing skill of the Oriental artist in such diverse fields as ornamental bronze~work, narrative~scroll painting, and landscape gardening. This is undoubtedly one of the best introductions to Oriental art available in English.

There are few people in the Western world who know nothing of the Great Pyramids of Giza and The treasures of Tutankhamon's tomb; but, for most, that is the full scope of their knowledge of Egyptian art. It is extraordinary how little general awareness there is of the fantastic wealth of this best~preserved art of all the ancient civilizations, so overshadowed has it been by the later and~for he West~more influential achievements of Greece and Rome. Professor Westendorf, the distinguished German Egyptologiist, here brings together an outstanding collection of illustrations ranging from prehistoric figurines of the fourth millennium B. C. to Christian ritual objects of Coptic times. However, the major emphasis is naturally on the Pharaonic period, those three thousand years during which the Egyptian's desire for immortality produced an art whose richness and variety are truly astonishing. Monumental architecture on a staggering and unprecedented scale; paintings that have been almost miraculously preserved in all their freshness by the dry Egyptian climate; sculpture in the round and carved and painted reliefs; tomb furnishings whose function was to provide the deceased with every necessity of the afterlife~all these are shown here in reproductions of the highest quality, accompanied by a lucid explanation of the role of each within the total context of Egyptian religious belief. Like the daily rising and setting of the sun and the annual flooding and drying up of the Nile, man's earthly existence was seen as only part of a continuous cycle that would be constantly renewed. Thus it is that, while the everyday mudbrick dwellings of the people have long since vanished, the stone~built temples and rock~cut tombs, literally constructed as dwellings for eternity, have survived as constant reminders not only of the grandeur of the ancient Egyptian Empire but also of the incomparable skill of her artists.
