E. GUTH Hokusai’s “Great Wave,” as it is commonly known today, is arguably one of Japan’s most successful exports, its commanding cresting profile instantly recognizable no matter how different its representations in media and style. In this richly illustrated and highly original study, Guth examines the iconic wave from its first publication in 1831 through the remarkable range of its articula- tions, arguing that it has been a site where the tensions, contra- dictions, and, especially, the productive creativities of the local and the global have been negotiated and expressed. She follows the wave’s trajectory across geographies, linking its movements with larger political, economic, technological, and sociocultural January 2015 developments. Adopting a case study approach, Guth explores 272 pages, 70 color and 5 black & white issues that map the social life of the iconic wave across time and illustrations, 7 x 8.25 place, from the initial reception of the woodblock print in Japan, Cloth 978-0-8248-3959-8, $57.00s to the image’s adaptations as part of “international national- Paper 978-0-8248-3960-4, $20.00s ism,” its place in American perceptions of Japan, its commercial adoption for lifestyle branding, and finally to its identification as a tsunami, bringing not culture but disaster in its wake. Wide ranging in scope yet grounded in close readings of disparate iterations of the wave, multidisciplinary and theoretically informed in its approach, Hokusai’s Great Wave will change both how we look at this global icon and the way we study the circulation of Japanese prints. This accessible and engagingly written work moves beyond the standard hagiographical approach to recognize, as categories of analysis, historical and geographic contingency as well as visual and technical brilliance. It is a book that will interest students of Japan and its culture and more generally those seeking fresh perspectives on the dynamics of cultural globalization. CHRISTINE M. E. GUTH leads the Asian design and material culture specialism in the Royal College of Art and Victoria and Albert Museum postgraduate design history program. 1 Japan / visual culture / DESIGN Partners in Print Artistic Collaboration and the Ukiyo-e Market JULIE NELSON DavIS This compelling account of collaboration in the genre of ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world) offers a new approach to understanding the production and reception of print culture in early modern Japan. It provides a corrective to the perception that the ukiyo-e tradition was the product of the creative talents of individual artists, revealing instead the many identities that made and disseminated printed work. Julie Nelson Davis demonstrates by way of examples from the later eighteenth century that this popular genre was the result of an exchange among publishers, designers, writers, carvers, printers, patrons, buyers, and readers. By recasting these works as examples of a network of commercial and artistic cooperation, she offers a nuanced view of the January 2015 complexity of this tradition and expands our understanding of 264 pages, 101 color illustrations, 7.5 x 9.75 the dynamic processes of production, reception, and intention in Cloth 978-0-8248-3938-3, $50.00s floating world print culture.
