In most such studies there is a strong familiarity initial portions.

  • Identification of Asian Garments in Small Museums
    AN ABSTRACTOF THE THESIS OF Alison E. Kondo for the degree ofMaster ofScience in Apparel Interiors, Housing and Merchandising presented on June 7, 2000. Title: Identification ofAsian Garments in Small Museums. Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Elaine Pedersen The frequent misidentification ofAsian garments in small museum collections indicated the need for a garment identification system specifically for use in differentiating the various forms ofAsian clothing. The decision tree system proposed in this thesis is intended to provide an instrument to distinguish the clothing styles ofJapan, China, Korea, Tibet, and northern Nepal which are found most frequently in museum clothing collections. The first step ofthe decision tree uses the shape ofthe neckline to distinguish the garment's country oforigin. The second step ofthe decision tree uses the sleeve shape to determine factors such as the gender and marital status ofthe wearer, and the formality level ofthe garment. The decision tree instrument was tested with a sample population of 10 undergraduates representing volunteer docents and 4 graduate students representing curators ofa small museum. The subjects were asked to determine the country oforigin, the original wearer's gender and marital status, and the garment's formality and function, as appropriate. The test was successful in identifying the country oforigin ofall 12 Asian garments and had less successful results for the remaining variables. Copyright by Alison E.

Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.

  • Japonism in Fashion in London, 1971-72: 1 Designer, 3 Photographers, 3 Magazines
    Japonism in fashion in London, 1971-72: 1 Designer, 3 Photographers, 3 Magazines Helene Thian, J.D., M.A. Fashion Historian Magazine representations of Kansai Yamamoto designs and the designer-as-archetype captured by three photographers, Japanese and European, in the London marketplace around the time frame of his fashion show in May, 1971 on the King’s Road (Kansai in Tokyo and London, Excerpts 1 and 2, 1971) comprise a narrative on the presentation of Japanese ethnicity and modern day spectacle creative of a symbolic relationship between Japan and the British ‘mediated by images’ (Debord, 1994:4). The four magazine spreads from 1971 and 1972 portray a sense of spectacle (Debord, 1994) rooted in a definitive Japonism overlaid with a patina of Eastern exoticism for the benefit of a public eager to consume ‘fantasy images of magazine photo shoots.’ (Barley, 1999:97 in Evans, 2008) The style of presentation of this Japan-inspired dress in British magazines, including both imagery and text, raises issues such as the impact in the Western marketplace of ‘ethnic’ dress, or the traditional clothing of native peoples considered part of the cultural patrimony as discussed by Baizerman, Eicher and Cerny (2008: 126-29), which is a hallmark of late 20th century fashion in the Western world (Crane, 2000); the phenomena of ‘the Other’ (Hall, 1997); and Orientalist constructions of non-Western cultural identity (Said, 1978). The essential meaning of ‘Japaneseness’ (Iwabuchi, 1994) in dress in a modern context is captured in photographic imagery by both Japanese and non-Japanese photographers, namely, Clive Arrowsmith, Hideki Fujii, and Harry Peccinotti.
