What’s In a Book? Part 31

On The Fourth Day of Fun I present... a new book review! This one’s a different from normal, which you’ll see soon!

Book’s cover courtesy of myself. Gion Maiko No Shiki: Yujiro Itakura Shashinshū (祇園舞妓の四季 极倉有士郎写真集) - Gion Maiko of The Four Seasons: The Photo Album of Yujiro Itakura by Yujiro Itakura (极倉有士郎) (No ISBN) Date of Publication: 1989 Language: Japanese Format: Softcover Availability: Really Rare Price: $30+ Errors: 3 (Sort Of) This book is exactly as the title suggests: the photographs of author Yujiro Itakura spanning the entirety of the 1980s. I reads like a book by Hiroshi Mizobuchi in that it’s organized into sections based on the seasons and is full of absolutely gorgeous photographs! The book is laid out as follows: Spring (春) Begins with images of the Miyako Odori, both on stage and at the tea ceremony. This is followed by images of maiko in May with their beautiful wisteria kanzashi. My favorite image in this set is of now natori geiko Mamehiro (豆弘) with wisteria shidare framing her face.  Summer (夏) With the heat comes the Gion Festival, but more importantly it sees maiko and geiko getting dressed up in their finest for Hassaku. This entire section is made up of primarily Hassaku images and a gorgeous show of kuromontsuki with a small sprinkling of random images taken in September. Autumn (秋) From there we go to Onshukai and the great performances by the best that Gion Kobu has to offer, including Yachiyo Inoue IV and V. After Onshukai comes Kanikakuni Sai with maiko from Shibata (the outfits and geimei give them away). Winter (冬) December sees Kaomise Soken and Kotohajime, but more importantly it brings the pagentry of Setsubun and Obake! Finally, we end with Oishi Ki and its grand performances within the Ichiriki. Becoming Brilliant (華やぐ) This section shows off minarai, misedashi, sakko, and erikae. This is my favorite sections as the outfits are sumptuous and includes famous geiko such as Takazuru (孝鶴) and Katsuno (佳つ乃). It ends with the kanzashi calendar. At the end we’re treated to short essays by various people associated with the karyukai, including the actresses from the movie Gion Bayashi, and a map of Gion Kobu ochaya.   The only errors that I could find were with a few image placements, such as an image of a geiko and maiko in December placed in the Summer section. They don’t detract from the book in any way, but sort of stand out as being not in the right sections. But now, we’ve reached the elephant in the room: availability. I’ve only seen this book for sale once, and I bought it right there and then. I can’t seem to find any other copies floating around anywhere, which is really sad since the images are beautiful and the book acts like a time capsule of the 1980s in Gion Kobu. If you can find it then it’s well worth it just from a historical standpoint.  Rating: ✪✪✪✪ (out of 5)

Introducing Japanese popular culture

New item:

"Specifically designed for use on a range of undergraduate and graduate courses, Introducing Japanese Popular Culture is a comprehensive textbook offering an up-to-date overview of a wide variety of media forms. It uses particular case studies as a way into examining the broader themes in Japanese culture and provides a thorough analysis of the historical and contemporary trends that have shaped artistic production, as well as, politics, society, and economics in Japan. As a result, more than being a time capsule of influential trends, this book teaches enduring lessons about how popular culture reflects the societies that produce and consume it. With contributions from an international team of scholars, representing a range of disciplines from history and anthropology to art history and media studies, the book's sections include: - Television - Videogames - Music - Popular Cinema - Anime - Manga - Popular Literature - Fashion - Contemporary Art Written in an accessible style by a stellar line-up of international contributors, this textbook will be essential reading for students of Japanese culture and society, Asian media and popular culture and Asian Studies in general."--Provided by publisher.
