Interior in very good condition with minor signs of wear.; IIn 1573, the Tokugawa Shogunate came to power and banished foreigners from Japan. Totally isolated for the next 250 years, Japan became, for Westeners, a lost civilization; a remote island kingdom shrouded in mist and legend evoking whispered images of another time. In 1853, Japan let down the barriers. The world finally could see what it had only imagined. Among the early arrivals were three little known artists: photographers Felice Beato and Baron Raimund von Stillfried, and the novelist Pierre Loti. Their work caused an immediate sensation throughout Europe, giving birth to the Western fascination and obsession with Japan. is easy to see why. In the photographs of Beato and Stillfried, a legend comes to life. Whether the subjects are fishmongers or princes, grocers or samurai, everything is strange, mysterious, alluring. The simple, direct photography overlaid with stylized, exquisitely subtle hand coloring imparts an aura of enchantment to everything. Myth and reality become one. Pierre Loti adds a bittersweet poignancy to the photographs. By the time Loti arrived in Japan, the old world was rapidly disappearing. One gets the sense in his writing of someone desperately holding on to a lovely dream as it slowly fades from memory. That dream lives again in this superbly produced book (originally published in France). The vivid images of this strange and wonderful civilization dazzle the eyes and seize the imagination. These are photo- graphs from another time. And another world.…

copertina morbida. Condition: nuovo. Dust Jacket Condition: nuovo. Nella complessa e variegata letteratura di viaggio in Italia, il tema della citt&#224 si configura con una propria specificit&#224, presente gi&#224 agli albori del viaggio moderno, che attraversa tutte le stagioni, evolvendosi con essa e arricchendosi di motivi inediti. Prima e per molti versi pi&#249 ancora della presenza di imponenti testimonianze architettoniche delle epoche passate, la cui descrizione pure costituisce tanta parte dei racconti di viaggio, &#232 la citt&#224 &#39altra&#39 in quanto tale che attira i viaggiatori e li sollecita a &#39leggerla&#39. E nelle loro letture spesso sono strettamente connessi passato e presente, riferimenti storici importanti e cronaca spicciola, perch&#233 dalla stratificazione della vicenda storica si tenta di cogliere il senso del presente. Della persistente, ritrovata o nascente grandezza, cos&#236 come del declino della citt&#224, nella quale poi in genere il soggiorno sar&#224, nell&#39ambito della pi&#249 generale economia dell&#39intero tour, pi&#249 o meno lungo in relazione soprattutto alla vitalit&#224 urbana. Pertanto se &#232 vero che le permanenze nelle diverse citt&#224 costituiscono momenti particolari di un&#39unica complessa avventura culturale ed esistenziale qual &#232 sempre un viaggio, per cui i relativi reportages non possono prescindere dal pi&#249 generale contesto dell&#39intero racconto di ciascun autore, &#232 pur vero che la specificit&#224 dei reportages urbani ne pu&#242, in molti casi, consentire l&#39enucleazione e la corretta proposta.
