  • 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.

  • Japanese Costume
    JAPANESE COSTUME BY HELEN C. GUNSAULUS Assistant Curator of Japanese Ethnology FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CHICAGO 1923 Field Museum of Natural History DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY Chicago, 1923 Leaflet Number 12 Japanese Costume Though European influence is strongly marked in many of the costumes seen today in the larger sea- coast cities of Japan, there is fortunately little change to be noted in the dress of the people of the interior, even the old court costumes are worn at a few formal functions and ceremonies in the palace. From the careful scrutinizing of certain prints, particularly those known as surimono, a good idea may be gained of the appearance of all classes of people prior to the in- troduction of foreign civilization. A special selection of these prints (Series II), chosen with this idea in mind, may be viewed each year in Field Museum in Gunsaulus Hall (Room 30, Second Floor) from April 1st to July 1st at which time it is succeeded by another selection. Since surimono were cards of greeting exchanged by the more highly educated classes of Japan, many times the figures portrayed are those known through the history and literature of the country, and as such they show forth the costumes worn by historical char- acters whose lives date back several centuries. Scenes from daily life during the years between 1760 and 1860, that period just preceding the opening up of the coun- try when surimono had their vogue, also decorate these cards and thus depict the garments worn by the great middle class and the military ( samurai ) class, the ma- jority of whose descendents still cling to the national costume.

  • Marriage in Japan Tadamasa Kobayashi*
    Marriage in Japan Traditional and Current Forms of Japanese Marriage Tadamasa Kobayashi* 1. Preface Marriage law follows folk practices. As Masayuki Takanashi writes, “Folk practices determine the reality of marriage. Laws cannot change these practices; they can only reflect them” (Masayuki Takanashi, 1969. Minpo no Hanasi. [Tales of Civil Law], p. 168. NHK Shuppan Kyokai). This theory is currently well-established; in fact Japanese family law specifi- cally states that marriage law “must match the sense of ethics and morality that characterizes a nation and should never run counter to social mores” (Kikunosuke Makino, 1929. Nihon Shinzoku Horon. [Theory on Japanese Family Law], pp. 7-8. Gan Sho Do). It is also specified that family law “is based on natural human relations, such as those between a married couple and between parent and child. Such natural human relations are influenced by a country’s climate, manners, and customs, as well as by the human characteristics of its inhabitants. Human relations thus develop uniquely in each country (Kikushiro Nagata, 1960. Shin Minpo Yogi 4. Shinzokuho. [Family Law, Major Significance of New Civil Law, and Vol. 4], p. 10. Tei- koku Hanre Hoki Shuppan Sha). Another writer has gone so far as to say that “Family law is powerless relative to traditional folk practices. Legisla- tion aiming at maintaining social mores is much less effective in practice than, for example, traditional talismans believed to expel evil and sickness” (Zennosuke Nakagawa, 1933. Minpo 3. [Civil Law, Vol. 3], pp. 6-7. Iwanami Shoten). With these views in mind, this paper focuses on traditional family law, particularly on marriage law and related issues, from the perspective of so- cio-jurisprudence rather than based on a strict legal interpretation.

In his formal plan for the institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through trie years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
