  • Climatic Variability in Sixteenth-Century Europe and Its Social Dimension: a Synthesis
    CLIMATIC VARIABILITY IN SIXTEENTH-CENTURY EUROPE AND ITS SOCIAL DIMENSION: A SYNTHESIS CHRISTIAN PFISTER', RUDOLF BRAzDIL2 IInstitute afHistory, University a/Bern, Unitobler, CH-3000 Bern 9, Switzerland 2Department a/Geography, Masaryk University, Kotlar8M 2, CZ-61137 Bmo, Czech Republic Abstract. The introductory paper to this special issue of Climatic Change sununarizes the results of an array of studies dealing with the reconstruction of climatic trends and anomalies in sixteenth­ century Europe and their impact on the natural and the social world. Areas discussed include glacier expansion in the Alps, the frequency of natural hazards (floods in central and southem Europe and stonns on the Dutch North Sea coast), the impact of climate deterioration on grain prices and wine production, and finally, witch-hlllltS. The documentary data used for the reconstruction of seasonal and annual precipitation and temperatures in central Europe (Germany, Switzerland and the Czech Republic) include narrative sources, several types of proxy data and 32 weather diaries. Results were compared with long-tenn composite tree ring series and tested statistically by cross-correlating series of indices based OIl documentary data from the sixteenth century with those of simulated indices based on instrumental series (1901-1960). It was shown that series of indices can be taken as good substitutes for instrumental measurements. A corresponding set of weighted seasonal and annual series of temperature and precipitation indices for central Europe was computed from series of temperature and precipitation indices for Germany, Switzerland and the Czech Republic, the weights being in proportion to the area of each country. The series of central European indices were then used to assess temperature and precipitation anomalies for the 1901-1960 period using trmlsfer functions obtained from instrumental records.

  • (B. 1948) Kamada Kōji Is Known for His Mastery of the Difficult Tenmoku
    KAMADA KŌJI (b. 1948) Kamada Kōji is known for his mastery of the difficult tenmoku (rabbit’s hair) glaze, a technique that originated in 10th century Song Dynasty China and entered Japan during the Muromachi period two centuries later. Kamada has revitalized the technique by applying the traditional glaze to his modernized, but still functional, teaware that challenge the concepts of balance and presence. His works serve as an updated canvas for these established glaze techniques, allowing form and glaze to beautifully complement one another. 1948 Born in Kyoto 1968 Trained in Gojōzaka with Shimizu Tadashi 1971 Graduated from Kyoto Ceramics Training School, became an instructor Began his study of tenmoku glazes 1973 Entered the 2nd Japan Craft Association, Kinki District 1976 Became an official member of the Japan Craft Society 1977 Resigned as instructor for the Kyoto prefectural government and began concentrating exclusively on creating ceramics 1982 With the closing of the public Gojōzaka kiln, he acquired his own gas kiln 1988 Studied under National Living Treasure, Shimizu Uichi 1990 Became an official member of Japan Sencha (Tea) Craft Association 2000 Juror for Nihon dentō kogeiten (Japan Traditional Crafts Exhibition) Awards: 1987 Kyoto Board of Education Chairperson's Award, the 16th Japan Craft Association Exhibition Kinki District Selected Solo Exhibitions: 1978 Osaka Central Gallery (also '79 and '80) 1980 Takashimaya Art Gallery, Kyoto (eight more shows through ‘03, then ‘13) 1984 Takashimaya Art Gallery, Nihonbashi, Tokyo

  • Volume 18 (2011), Article 3
    Volume 18 (2011), Article 3 http://chinajapan.org/articles/18/3 Lim, Tai Wei “Re-centering Trade Periphery through Fired Clay: A Historiography of the Global Mapping of Japanese Trade Ceramics in the Premodern Global Trading Space” Sino-Japanese Studies 18 (2011), article 3. Abstract: A center-periphery system is one that is not static, but is constantly changing. It changes by virtue of technological developments, design innovations, shifting centers of economics and trade, developmental trajectories, and the historical sensitivities of cultural areas involved. To provide an empirical case study, this paper examines the material culture of Arita/Imari 有田/伊万里 trade ceramics in an effort to understand the dynamics of Japan’s regional and global position in the transition from periphery to the core of a global trading system. Sino-Japanese Studies http://chinajapan.org/articles/18/3 Re-centering Trade Periphery through Fired Clay: A Historiography of the Global Mapping of Japanese Trade Ceramics in the 1 Premodern Global Trading Space Lim Tai Wei 林大偉 Chinese University of Hong Kong Introduction Premodern global trade was first dominated by overland routes popularly characterized by the Silk Road, and its participants were mainly located in the vast Eurasian space of this global trading area. While there are many definitions of the Eurasian trading space that included the so-called Silk Road, some of the broadest definitions include the furthest ends of the premodern trading world. For example, Konuralp Ercilasun includes Japan in the broadest definition of the silk route at the farthest East Asian end.2 There are also differing interpretations of the term “Silk Road,” but most interpretations include both the overland as well as the maritime silk route.

  • Kraak Porcelain
    Large Dishes from Jingdezhen and Longquan around the World Dr Eva Ströber Keramiekmuseum Princessehof, NL © Eva Ströber 2010 Cultures of Ceramics in Global History, 1300-1800 University of Warwick, 22-24 April 2010 Global History Arts & Humanities & Culture Centre Research Council http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/history/ghcc/research/globalporcelain/conference Large Dishes from Jingdezhen and Longquan around the World The talk will be about the huge success of a type of Chinese porcelain the Chinese themselves had indeed no use for: large serving dishes, large meaning more than 35 cm in diam. The most common blue and white type was made in Jingdezhen, the Celadon type in the Longquan kilns in Southern Zhejiang and Northern Fujian. Another type of large dishes, the Zhangzhou type, was produced in the kilns of Zhangzhou, Fujian. The focus will be on three markets these oversized dishes were made for: the Muslim markets of the Middle East, particularly Persia, Turkey and the Mughal empire, SE Asia including what is now Indonesia, and Japan. By miniatures, drawings, paintings or old photographs it will be illustrated, how these large Chinese dishes were used in a non Chinese social and cultural context. The Chinese Bowl The Chinese themselves, as can be seen on the famous painting of a literati gathering from the Song – dynasty of the 12th century, dined from rather small sized tableware. The custom to eat from small dishes and particularly from bowls started in the Song dynasty and spread to many countries in SE Asia. It has not changed even to this very day.

  • Chapter 1 Lesson 4 Technology in the 1500S
    GL5 History Teacher Text Chapter 1 Lesson 4 Technology in the 1500s Student Objectives: • Review the invention, design, and uses of the printing press. • Describe how the printing press works and its importance in history. • Discuss the astrolabe and its use in navigation in the 1500s. • Make, use, and test an astrolabe. Worldview Integration: • God wants us to read, circulate, and explain his Word to others. (Acts 8:26-40; letters of Paul) • God is the maker of the heavens and the Earth. (Genesis 1:1). • God gave us the stars and constellations to help us navigate here on Earth. (Matthew 2:1-12). Materials: • C1L4 “John Gutenberg and the Invention of the Printing Press” from Great Inventors and Their Inventions by Frank P. Bachman, teacher resource • C1L4 Making a Simple Astrolabe • C1L4 An Instrument with a Past and a Future, teacher resource • C1L4 Printing Press Illustrations, teacher resource • Potatoes or soft objects that can be formed into letters • Paper for printing press messages • Ink or paint to dip letters into to “print” their messages Introduction: Two important inventions made possible what we call the Age of Discovery (AD 1400-1799). One was the application of an ancient tool called the astrolabe—a compact instrument used to observe sun, moon, stars, and other celestial bodies. The other was the invention of the printing press by Johannes (John) Gutenberg. He figured out the use of movable type. Because of the printing press and the travel journals of the explorers, people across Europe were able to read about a new world and its potential for trade and wealth to Europeans.
