Since those early days the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures Institute has grown to become one of the most significant constellations of expertise in Japanese art, archaeology and heritage, and our mission has also evolved. World-class research continues to be at the heart of what we do, using all available means to disseminate the findings of that research to as wide an audience as possible. To that end it is a great pleasure to launch our new series of Sainsbury Institute Occasional Papers with this collection of contributions by Toshio Watanabe, our Professor of Japanese Arts and Cultural Heritage. Professor Watanabe has redefined the field of Japonisme over his long and distinguished career.

Charles Muller on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Tokyo This is a study of the alleged “singular reception career”1 that Goethe experi- enced in Japan from 1889 to 1989, i. e., from the first translation of theMi gnon song to the last issues of the Neo Faust manga series . In its path, we will high- light six areas of discourse which concern the most prominent historical figures resp. figurations involved here: (1) the distinct academic schools of thought aligned with the topic “Goethe in Japan” since Kimura Kinji 木村謹治, (2) the tentative Japanification of Goethe by Thomas Mann and Gottfried Benn, (3) the recognition of the (un-)German classical writer in the circle of the Japanese national author Mori Ōgai 森鴎外, as well as Goethe’s rich resonances in (4) Japanese suicide ideals since the early days of Wertherism (Ueruteru-zumu ウェル テルヅム), (5) the Zen Buddhist theories of Nishida Kitarō 西田幾多郎 and D .

Critical appraisal of these source materials supports the thesis that the polite violence and interesting deceits of the discursive history of “Goethe, the Japanese” can mostly be traced back, other than to a form of speech in German-Japanese cultural diplomacy, to internal questions of Japanese national identity .

    Transcultural Studies 2011.1 159 Tomonaga Sanjuro’s Epistemology of International Relations: The “Self-State-International Relations” Proto-Paradigm in Modern Japan. Atsushi Shibasaki, Komazawa University, Tokyo Translated by Gaynor Sekimori, SOAS, University of London Originally published in Kokusai seiji (International Relations) 156, Kokusai seiji kenkyu no sentan (The Frontier of International Relations) 6, March 2009. Introduction The purpose of this article is to explore the historical significance of the life and thought of Tomonaga Sanjūrō (1871-1951), a scholar of the history of western philosophy active from the end of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth.1 There are two broad reasons for studying Tomonaga. First, we need to reassess his place, not only in International Relations (IR), but also in modern Japanese intellectual history and the history of philosophy, given the fact that he has not hitherto been widely studied or evaluated. The second reason concerns his significance within the intellectual history of International Cultural Relations (ICR) and IR. In particular, this article examines Tomonaga’s position in the exegitical genealogy of the discourse on Immanuel Kant’s theory of peace, as expressed in his Perpetual Peace: A Philosophical Sketch (Zum ewigen Frieden. Ein philosophischer Entwurf; 1795), and Tominaga's role in the formation of an epistemological base for understanding modern IR in Japan. An epistemological mechanism is the basis for asking and answering the question “What is International Relations?”, which emerges from Kant’s work. Such an epistemology is concerned with how we understand IR as one phase in the construction of that world in relation to all the other phases.

  • Modern Japanese Aesthetics and the Neo-Kantians
    Modern Japanese Aesthetics and the Neo-Kantians Alejandro Bárcenas My interest in the interpretative background of modern Japa- nese aesthetics began with a trip to the University of Kyoto in the spring of 2001. During my visit to the philosophy department, I was told on several occasions that students were reading Hegel, as well as a rather obscure nineteenth-century British Hegelian named Thomas Green, in order to understand the formative ideas of the main philosopher of the school: Nishida Kitarō (1870–1945). However, as I began to immerse myself more in depth in the most representative works of Japanese aes- thetics, I came across any number of neo-Kantian authors who were familiar to me from my philosophical training but who were rarely men- tioned or given much notice in recent surveys and introductions to the subject (for example, Hume 1995; García Gutiérrez 1990; González Valles 2000; Marra 2001; Odin 2001). As it turns out, these authors were very important, if not crucial, to the development of leading Japa- nese philosophers themselves at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth. Although there is ample evidence of this influence to be found in the writings of these Japanese thinkers, the authors themselves seem long since to have fallen out of favor in the uni- versity classroom today. 13 14 | Modern Japanese Aesthetics and the Neo-Kantians Japanese humanism Before I consider the influence these authors had, I should also clarify that my intention is to present a picture of the studies of Japa- nese aesthetics from a historicist perspective in order to appreciate the philosophical period in question as an intellectual movement embed- ded in particular circumstances, and not to think of it as something that emerged completely finished like the goddess Aphrodite rising up out of the foam.

This is especially true with respect to the fiction composed during a short segment of his career-from 1909 to 1912-which Richard Bowring has labelled Mori Ogai's "literature of ideas." Ogai's "literature of ideas" depicts an enormous and heterogeneous array of ideas from a variety of humanistic and scientific disciplines, and is expressed in a variety of genres and literary styles.

Cho¯fu¯ was cautionary about Japan following foolishly in the steps of Germany; O¯ gai countered with the argument that the West (and Germany in particular) offered intellectual riches as long as the Japanese student chose his subjects carefully. Neither man “won” the debate, but their arguments reveal how Ger- man philosophy infl uenced modern Japan and how variably that philosophy was interpreted. The Meiji Japanese experience abroad varied not only across temporal di- vides but also in accordance with an individual’s training, expectations, and goals. The opportunities to study abroad were initially fairly limited in the 1860s and early 1870s, but they more than quadrupled by the turn of the century.

  • Double Bias in Adopting Burke's Aesthetics : the Meiji Constitution and Its Influence1*
    AESTHETICS No.ll (2004) Looking At Japanese Culture 89 Double Bias in Adopting Burke's Aesthetics : The Meiji Constitution and its Influence1* Hideki Kuwajima2) Introduction There was a double bias among Japanese people in adopting Edmund Burke (1729-1797)'s aesthetics in the era of modernization. One bias was caused by the 'Ger- manization'3' of Japanese institutions, the other was done by the underestimation of aes- thetics in the Japanese historiography of 'philosophy'. This double bias should be seen as intricately and intrinsically related to the enactment of the Meiji Constitution {Dai-nippon-teikoku Kempo) at that time. In drafting the Constitution, Kentaro KANEKO (1 853-1942) introduced Burke as a western conservative thinker who was opposed to the radical Rousseauism. Burke's po- litical thought was regarded as anti-liberal or anti-democratic. The Meiji Constitution was established based on the Prussian one, asserting the power of the Emperor {Ten 'no). As a result, almost all the Meiji institutions were Prussianized, or 'Germanized'. Many German specialists in various academic fields were invited to Japan, instead of English-speaking people from Britain or U.S.A. The British ethos, which had flour- ished since the arrival of Kuro-fune ('Black Ships' from the West), became but a 'sub-standard'5). Philosophy was no exception. In this discipline in Japan, for example, I. Kant (1724-1804), G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1831) and A. Schopenhauer (1788-1860) were the principal persons of its historiography, and the Hegelian historicism was considera- bly outstanding in its influence. Consequently, Burke's aesthetics has ever since been taken as pre-Kantian, pre-systematized and immature.

Asian Values-Swiss Values? 1 by Elmar Holenstein For years one is reading of "Asian values." Traveling through Asia, one is rubbing one's eyes. The whole of Asia, from the Bosporus and Ural all the way to the Pacific Ocean, is thrown into one great pot, as if they all, Turkic peoples and Mongols, Arabs, Iranians and Malaysians as well as Chinese, Koreans and Japanese had been educated by Confucius. Business people as well as political scientists who tell us of "Asiatic values" are flying in twelve hours from Frankfurt and Zurich to Shanghai, Singapore, and Tokyo. Those shortcuts therefore? Indeed, the peoples mentioned share one trait: from the perspective of Europe, they live in the "Orient." When in the past one had to undertake long boat journeys to the "Far East," one got to know them all as "oriental." It meant: irrational, sensuous, longwinded and dissolute, inscrutable for us, therefore unreliable all the way to devious, certainly alien and odd.
