PETITJEAN, Mgr Bernard ; Junshin Joshi Tanki Daigaku - Immaculate Heart College (Kagoshima)
Puchijan-Shikyo-Shokanshu [ Bishop Petitjean's correspondence ]
1 vol. 8vo., col. or b. & w. pictures, Junshin Joshi Tanki Daigaku , 1986, 309 pp. Text in Japanese only. A nice copy. Title (in Japanese) : ; Editor (in Japanese) : . Scarce. Bishop Bernard-Thadée Petitjean (1829-1884) was a priest of the French Societe des Missions Etrangeres (Paris). He was among the first foreigners to arrive in Japan (in 1860), after the forced entry by Commodore Perry in 1854. After having settled a Catholic Church in the city of Nagaski, since father Petitjean had no Japanese visitor, there was no evidence of any Japanese christian still alive in this area of Japan. In March 1865 however, in a famous moment, he discovered a small group of 15 japanese citizens in his church, though Japanese people were still strictly forbidden to associate with Christians and though the small church in Nagasaki had been declared to be reserved only for foreigners. These visitors were no usual ones, but hidden catholic Japanese believers, whose community had been outlawed and slaughtered by the Japanese authorities during more than 200 years. This unexpected meeting was, for Westerners, the very first evidence that Christianism had managed to survive in Japan under the Tokugawa administration. In 1866, Father Petitjean was appointed Vicar Apostolic of Japan. Persecutions against Christianism in Japan ended only in 1873. Japonais

Philippe PONS
Japon. Philippe PONS. D'Edo à Tokyo mémoires et modernité
Philippe Pons cherche à renouer, dans son foisonnement sensible, les fils épars d'une «culture ordinaire», prégnante et perdurable, qui sourd d'une «petite tradition» et s'exprime dans des attitudes, des pratiques, des «riens» du quotidien. Une tradition qui forme le substrat de la modernité japonaise contemporaine, dont il faut situer les racines non pas dans l'époque Meiji, moment du basculement dans l'ère industrielle, mais dans celle qui la précéda:le règne des Tokugawa (XVII?-XIX? siècle). Deux siècles et demi dominés par la culture des marchands d'Osaka puis d'Edo (ancien nom de T?ky?), qui furent en quelques sorte la période d'incubation de la modernité japonaise.Partant de T?ky?, de son histoire et de ses moeurs, il s'est agi de mettre en valeur certains héritages pour tenter d'en discerner les échos dans le Japon moderne. Plus le sujet s'élargit et plus T?ky? s'éloigne pour n'être qu'une référence, le point d'ancrage d'une mémoire populaire réfugiée dans les gestes apparemment les plus insignifiants, les savoirs intériorisés des corps:un temps des peuples qui ne correspond pas obligatoirement à celui des élites broché, 220x140, 458 pages, très bel état Bibliothèque des sciences humaines Gallimard 1988 ref/c83

Philippi, Donald L. (Translator)
Kojiki
v, [3], 655 pages. Extensive glossary. Bibliography. Index. Illustrated endpapers. Text in English. "The Kojiki, the earliest source book in Japanese literature and history, was completed in 712 A.D. under the auspices of the imperial court. It is the oldest extant book in Japanese and, as its title (literally, 'Record of Ancient Things') suggests, an account of a still earlier era. It is the court's statement about the origins of the imperial clan and the leading families and the beginnings of Japan as a nation; and it is, at the same time, a compilation of myths, historical and pseudo-historical narratives and legends, songs, anecdotes, folk etymologies, and genealogies." - from dust jacket. Book clean, bright and unmarked with light wear. Moderate wear to price-clipped dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. Book

PHILO SINENSIS [WH MEDHURST CARL GUTZLAFF]. W H
Translation of a Comparative Vocabulary of the Chinese Corean and Japanese Languages. To Which is Added the Thousand Character Classic the Chinese and Corean; the Whole Accompanied by Copious Indexes of all the Chinese and English Words.
Tokyo: Yushodo. Number 25 of a Limited Edition of 100 copies. 1979. Printed on folded leaves stab binding presented in a Japanese folding cloth covered case with toggle ties. New introduction booklet with red ribbon ties loosely inserted. A handsome work in excellent condition. This attractive facsimile of a work said by some authorities to have been adapted by Walter Henry Medhurst under the pseudonym Philo Sinensis. It was first published at the Parapattan Press in Batavia in 1835 under the supervision of Walter Henry Medhurst. This adaptation of a Korean classified vocabulary was apparently accomplished without the help of a Korean speaker. The publication from which it was developed was written for Koreans learning Japanese. The adaptation added romanizations of the Japanese and Korean deduced from Japanese and English lists. Lust - Western Books on China. <br> <br>Although standard bibliographies such as Lust 'Western Books on China Published up to 1850' state that Philo Sinensis was the pseudonym of Walter Henry Medhurst “Philo Sinensis” is usually accepted as the pseudonym used by Carl Gutzlaff at the time and appears in publications such as the Chinese Repository. Its presence is therefore likely to indicate some level of involvement of Carl Gutzlaff. However most authorities attribute the greater role in the adaptation to Walter Henry Medhurst. <br> <br>Accompanying this copy of the facsimile is a typescript note in English from Nitta Yuji founder of Yushodo Booksellers Tokyo explaining that he published this facsimile on the occasion of his 70th birthday "in order to share its value to everyone in the scholarly world. It is my hope that this small tribute would be of use." A very fitting contribution to the scholarly world indeed. . Yushodo. hardcover

PHOTOGRAPHY 19TH CENTURY - JAPAN
19th century Japan - Album of 42 original tinted albumen photographs of Japan Alaska and Sir G. Baden-Powell and Sir G. Dawson seal expedition in 1891
19th century Japan - Album of 42 original tinted albumen photographs of Japan Alaska and Sir G. Baden-Powell and Sir G. Dawson seal expedition in 1891<br /> N.p.<br /> N.d. c. late 19th C 1891<br /> <br /> Oblong 14 x 18.5cm album disbound accordion style. Paper mache over wood boards with an intricate embossed design and gold and red pigment. Stiff card pages are bordered in pale blue with mounted tinted album photographs 10.8 x 14cm. Most are captioned in pencil in English in the margins of the card mounts. The leaves are disbound/unhinged. 25pp 42 photos. 8 of the 50 sides are blank with no photo mounted. There is no evidence of any photos having been removed.<br /> <br /> The posed Japanese photos appear to be from photography studios in Japan that catered to tourists. Among these studio portraits are photos of sumo wrestlers women with umbrellas in a rickshaw washing and applying makeup and posing as dancers. There are also picturesque views of Nagasaki. A photo of the bronze horse statue at Suwa Shrine è«è¨ªç¥žç¤¾ Suwa Jinja in Nagasaki mislabeled a ‘temple’ in the album does not have an enclosure around it dating it to between 1870 when it was first dedicated and 1913 as a corral was built around it during the Meiji period.<br /> <br /> Scenes of villages from the Aleutian Islands of Alaska are pictured as well as locations in Russia. Included are photos of people on a rustic main street in Petropavlovsk Russia the SSS Danube in Avacha Russia a seal rookery and a group photo that includes Sir George Smyth Baden-Powell 1847–1898 and scientist and explorer Sir George Dawson 1849– 1901.<br /> <br /> On June 23 1891 an article appeared in the NY Times stating that the two men were made British Commissioners in the Bering Sea seal question and an October 22 1891 article from the same newspaper announced the arrival of Baden-Powell and Dawson in Ottawa Canada after returning from the expedition to observe seal hunters dating the photos from late June to October of 1891. This expedition was important in gaining evidence that was used in arbitration that voted in favor of England against the U.S. As the expedition was an official one undertaken largely in secret it is possible that the photos of the area were taken by a member of that expedition likely a Westerner and skilled amateur or professional photographer. A full report of that expedition undertaken on the chartered steamer Danube also in the photos was accessed 1.2.23. https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/ptid=hvd.hwyprv&view=1up&seq=11<br /> The British Man-O’-War Porpoise which is included in the photographs is mentioned as accompanying the group.<br /> <br /> Photos overall are in good condition a few are slightly faded some with tissue guards interleaved. Chipping to edge of cover. An unusual combination of studio and candid photos with historic significance in stunning lacquer paper-mache covers. unknown

Photography -Japan - Born, Marius
Collective Order. Notes on Tokyo.
2011. Köln König 2011. 18 : 305 cm. 68 pages with coloured photographic illustrations 1 signed and numbered C-Print C-Print by Marius Born. Original boards with coloured illustrated original wrappers in original board-box. First edition . - One of 30 copies of the special deluxe edition with the signed and numbered C-Print Photo-Print "Tameike-Sanno Subway Station Tokyo March 6 8.30 a.m." by Marius Born. Collective order is the term Swiss photographer Marius Born uses to describe urban life in Tokyo which forms the subject of this volume. Borns images depict a system of social order which appears alien to him. The dominance of order is so extreme that even the homeless neatly lay out their sleeping mats in a park and children in an amusement park are identified by the numbers that they wear. Born succeeds in capturing this order in his images revealing the empty spaces even in crowded public spaces. Thus the path to the subway along which the masses stream during the day becomes the site of a solitary stroll. Similarly a bicycle ride to the grounds of the Imperial Palace turns into a leisurely outing. hardcover
