Abstract

While the relationship between place and creative effort has been the focus of pronounced new interest in various disciplines, the contours and co-ordinates of the process by which one informs the other, by which landscape shapes text and vice versa, have yet to be delineated in any systematic fashion. This volume sheds light on that process, investigating the ways in which it is both reciprocal and interstitial: how does text shape our perception of landscape as much as it is shaped by it, and how do we account for the points at which text and landscape intersect? The first part of the volume introduces us to the question of process in landscape and literary studies; the second part examines the moments within the process by which landscape and text come to bear upon each other; and the final part deals with the relationship between the material experience of landscape and the formal characteristics of a given text, using this to reflect back on the processes of landscape perception and creativity. This volume spans the disciplines of geography, literary studies, and the visual arts. It also brings together scholarly and creative perspectives, interspersing academic commentary with poetic-photographic essays.

Abstract

Dating from the 15th to early 20th century, 160 works from the rich material culture of Japanese nō and kyōgen theatre (nōgaku) - including masks and costumes as well as paintings, musical instruments and libretti - have been selected from the collections of the National Noh Theatre, Tokyo and the Agency for Cultural Affairs of Japan. A program of nō theatre generally consists of one or two nō plays with a kyōgen interlude. Both theatre forms deal with the multitude of human emotions, but while nō is a more dream-like pursuit of an ideal beauty to portray the essence of human nature, kyōgen strives for realistic expression through humour. The beauty and elegance that pervades the world of nō and the spirited, playful mood that characterise kyōgen plays are echoed in the masks and costumes, which distinguish nōgaku from other forms of traditional Japanese performing arts. The objects in this book represent Japan's unique aesthetic sensibility and the excellence of its traditional arts and crafts. The splendour of the masks, robes and paintings invites viewers to appreciate and better understand these complex and sumptuous worlds.
