Crisman Molly Warsh Head of Department, Cynthia Werner August 2012 Major Subject: Anthropology iii ABSTRACT Portuguese Ships on Japanese Namban Screens. (August 2012) Kotaro Yamafune, B.A., Hosei University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Luis Filipe Vieira de Castro Namban screens are a well-known Japanese art form that was produced between the end of the 16th century and throughout the 17th century. More than 90 of these screens survive today. They possess substantial historical value because they display scenes of the first European activities in Japan. Among the subjects depicted on Namban screens, some of the most intriguing are ships: the European ships of the Age of Discovery. Namban screens were created by skillful Japanese traditional painters who had the utmost respect for detail, and yet the European ships they depicted are often anachronistic and strangely. On maps of the Age of Discovery, the author discovered representations of ships that are remarkably similar to the ships represented on the Namban screens.

[email protected] Sintesi L'importanza di garantire una buona gestione dei rifiuti solidi come un elemento essenziale per lo sviluppo sostenibile è ormai chiara a tutti i livelli: internazionale, nazionale e a livello comunitario. Con la dichiarazione delle Nazioni Unite di Rio del 1992, "Dichiarazione di Rio sull'ambiente e lo sviluppo", e l'Agenda 21 un impegno è stato preso per affrontare la questione e per promuovere una gestione dei rifiuti solidi ecologicamente corretta, socialmente accettabile ed economicamente fattibile. A lottare per migliorare la situazione sono in particolare i gestori dei rifiuti a livello di governo locale nelle aree urbane dei paesi a basso e medio reddito. Servizi esistenti e infrastrutture sono spesso disfunzionali o mancanti. La conseguenza è una minaccia per la salute pubblica e un grave inquinamento ambientale del quale soffre in particolare la popolazione più povera.

It also undertakes research into the Collection and disseminates it through exhibitions and publications that are intended to serve as works of reference. The Museum has a programme of temporary exhibitions, which either comprise its own pieces or touch upon themes related with the Collection. As the works of art that make up the Collection have been produced by different cultures, the Museum maintains close and privileged relations with international collections. Both the Collection and the museum’s activities are publicised in a variety of ways, either through the Education Department, which develops projects and courses for young people, adolescents, adults and families, or through recourse to the new technologies, paying attention to the updating and improvement of the information provided through the Museum’s website. Its publishing activities are seen as an essential complement to the common aim: to attract more visitors to the Museum, encouraging them to take part in its activities and providing them with greater intellectual enrichment, whether through leisure or study. Temporary exhibitions “The ‘Greek Taste’. The Birth of Neoclassicism in France, 1750-1775” Organised by the Department of Decorative Arts of the Louvre Museum, the exhibition was first presented at the Royal Palace of Madrid, opening at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation on 14 February 2008 and remaining on public display until 4 May.
