Japan: on final page in trans.: "Copied 1854 by Wakabayashi in today's Tottori Prefecture a member of the Shinshoken." Manipulative therapy has a long history in Japan. "Healing of the sick through rubbing of the body was known to the earliest Japanese physicians who brought the art to a high state of development. Massage was early pre-Nara period linked with the treatment of fractures and bandaging and remained one of the chief factors in the care of the body sharing with mineral baths acupuncture gymnastics and 'deep breathing' in the preliminary development of physical therapy in Japan.The achievements and learning in the practice of massage also contributed to the establishment in the latter part of the 17th century of the 'Seikotsu-Jutsu' which was a system of treatment for fractures and dislocations."-Mestler A Galaxy of Old Japanese Medical Books II pp. 484-85. Gento Yoshiwara d. 1800 was one of the three most important orthopedic specialists in Japan during the final years of the 18th century along with Bunken Kagami and Genka Ninomiya. Yoshiwara whose trade name or mark was "Kyoinsai" studied both Dutch medicine in Nagasaki and Chinese medicine and was greatly influenced by the Chinese Dao yin treatment of massage and exercise. Unlike the works of Kagami and Ninomiya Yoshiwara's most important work - "Seikotsu yoketsu" - remained in manuscript as it was restricted to students of Yoshiwara's school; the present manuscript contains a reworking of that text. The beginning of the main part of the text on the fifth leaf provides the name of Yoshiwara and the location of his school in Hizen province today's Nagasaki Prefecture and the name of two disciples Wada and Abe. The text describes 13 types of treatment in detail including treatments of dislocated shoulders fingers and jaws; spinal stretching dealing with hip problems etc. Many of these treatments have rather fanciful names: "Windmill" "Bear Hug" "Bird's Wing" "Control the Wind" "Crane Feather" "Playing with a Fish" "Worm" "Playing with a Jewel" "Tail of the Bird" "The Snail Method" "Riding on the Dragon" "Swallow's Tail" etc. Some relatively minor worming at the beginning and light marginal dampstaining. ❧ Mestler A Galaxy of Old Japanese Medical Books III p. 152. unknown books

réf. 10716All sheets with woodblock diagrams. Ten woodblock-printed sheets each ca. 1045 x 580 mm. Korea: 18th or 19th century A very rare woodblock-printed broadside edition of the influential SÅnghak sipto by Yi Hwang 1501-71 “Korea’s greatest philosopher.”–Pratt & Rutt Korea. A Historical and Cultural Dictionary Curzon: 1999 p. 517. Yi a child prodigy was a scholar and government official. He served four kings in a number of high positions but his integrity and stand against corruption caused him to be relieved of his posts and sent into exile a number of times. “Yi Hwang better known by his penname T’oegye is generally reputed as Korea’s foremost Neo-Confucian thinker. From the very beginning of the Yi dynasty 1392-1910 the Neo-Confucian doctrine of the Ch’eng-Chu school was the officially sanctioned ideology but with T’oegye it arrived at its full maturity on the peninsula for he was the first to present it with a fully sophisticated and integral grasp of its scope unity and implications. Consequently his teaching became a constant reference point for subsequent generations of Korean Neo-Confucians and his understanding of Chu Hsi’s Zhu Xi’s vision exercised a profound and lasting influence… “One of his last and most important works was the Ten Diagrams on Sage Learning SÅnghak sipdo which he composed for the instruction of young King SÅnjo reigned 1567-1608 in 1568 two years before his death. Considered the summation of T’oegye’s lifetime of learning the Ten Diagrams became one of the classics of the Korean Neo-Confucian tradition: during the course of the Yi dynasty it was reprinted at least twenty-four times and it now circulates in three modern Korean translations… “‘Sage learning’ is a phrase that appears frequently in Neo-Confucian works meant for the instruction of rulers reflecting the view that the essential duty of a ruler is to learn from and emulate ancient sage kings. In terms of its origin the Ten Diagrams is certainly such a work. But T’oegye’s title is ambiguous for ‘sage learning’ also means ‘learning how to become a sage’ that is a fully perfected human being. This is a kind of learning that has to do with not only kings but every human being. Thus the provenance of this work is universal and through the centuries it has served as a basic handbook for generations of serious Neo-Confucians in their endeavor to understand and cultivate the full perfection of their humanity… “This kind of ‘sage learning’ in its full scope is a distinctively Neo-Confucian development. With the Neo-tradition revival of the tradition in the Sung dynasty Confucians finally developed a metaphysical psychological and ascetical framework that could fully describe the status of sagehood and delineate it. Sagehood became a practical goal rather than a theoretical ideal. T’oegye’s object in the Ten Diagrams is to present that framework and path… “Doing this of course amounts to presenting a structured summation of the essence of Ch’eng-Chu theoretical and practical learning. One could devote a large book to this topic; T’oegye compressed it into ten chapters each brief enough to be mounted on a single panel of a ten-paneled screen. Each chapter begins with a diagram and is followed by a text. T’oegye’s own remarks are only a short portion of each chapter. As far as possible he tried to make this a compilation of diagrams and words from other authoritative sources so that the work would clearly represent the cumulative wisdom of the Confucian tradition not just his own private opinion… “The compressed format is not a concession to hasty readers or beginners needing a simple introduction. Quite the opposite; whether as a short book or a screen placed in one’s quarters T’oegye intended this as a work to be lived with and absorbed slowly through repeated reading and leisurely reflection. In that way its compressed contents would unfold gradually and become a part of oneself through the lengthy and personal effort of apprehending its full meaning. The diagrammatic format he chose is ideal for such use for the categories correspondences and relationships suggested by spatial arrangement offer food for reflective thought far beyond the content of the words themselves. T’oegye could expect that the Ten Diagrams would be approached in this way because the Neo-Confucian approach to texts emphasized this kind of repeated reading prolonged reflection and personal assimilation. The theory was that reading should be a process of self-transformation not mere information gathering. T’oegye designed his Ten Diagrams precisely as a tool to be used in such a process.”–Michael C. Kalton “T’oegye’s ‘Ten Diagrams on Sage Learning’: A Korean View of the Essence of Chu Hsi’s Teaching” in The Journal of Korean Studies Vol. 7 1990 pp. 97-99–& see the rest of this wonderful article for the importance of this text which was influential in both Korea and Japan. The titles of the ten chapters are: The Diagram of the Supreme Ultimate The Western Inscription The Elementary Learning The Great Learning The Rules of the White Deer Grotto Academy The Mind Combines and Governs the Nature and Feelings Diagram of the Explanation of Humanity Diagram of the Learning of the Mind-and-Heart Diagram of the Admonition of Mindfulness Studio and Admonition on Rising Early and Retiring Late. As mentioned in Prof. Kalton’s essay these broadsides were intended to be made into a ten-panel standing screen. Fine condition and a remarkable survival. A few minor stains and a little dusty at extremities. We find no broadside edition in WorldCat. unknown

1921réf. 363193Tokyo: Nihon Shoin 1921. First Edition. A writer for the Rafu Shimpo Japanese newspaper in Los Angeles offers a satirical lexicon of Japanese American terms. The book is reminiscent of Ambrose Bierce's Devil's Dictionary. For example an early entry is for "寫眞çµå©š" shashin kekkon or Picture Marriage: "The Japanese who have always imitated foreign countries in every aspect of their lives are now the only ones in the world with this unique and original invention." Picture Marriage is just one example of Yamazaki's commentary on the anti-Japanese climate in the United States at the time. The introduction to this book is by the novelist Ubukata Toshiro. OCLC: 673765878 National Diet Library. First edition first printing. A very good copy in thin flexible boards. Boards spotted; lacking the printed white dust jacket. Nihon Shoin unknown
réf. 6952Scroll 420 x 12000 mm. with elaborate silk brocade endpaper at beginning. Japan: 1880-86. This beautifully rendered scroll of natural history paintings was executed with one exception by Akio or Keigu Yamamoto 1827-1903 Confucian scholar doctor botanist and highly gifted artist. He was born in Kyoto the son of the prominent doctor and botanist Boyo Yamamoto 1778-1859 the direct disciple of Ono Ranzan 1729-1810 the famous professor of botany who wrote a series of classic botanical books. Keigu “continued his father’s work in his private school in Osaka and spent his time organizing meetings that were regularly attended by both honzogaku amateurs and Japanese biologists.”–Federico Marcon The Knowledge of Nature and the Nature of Knowledge in Early Modern Japan p. 301. Keigu travelled widely throughout Japan drawing plants and animals. He gave botanical instruction to the Meiji emperor and other members of the royal family. Keigu also wrote several standard works on materia medica and left many sketch books and scrolls which entered the Kyoto rare book trade in 1932; some of these were published only in the 1980s. All of his sketch books and scrolls offered valuable and unique information regarding native plants and animals as well as those that had been introduced into Japan. Our scroll contains 14 very finely executed color paintings of plants birds and animals. The paintings are quite unique in their remarkable spaciousness. For instance the image of the octopus is 1410 mm. long. The images include a most unusual morning glory three joined sheets and 1190 mm. long; an edible yellow lily two joined sheets 800 mm.; an ungei flower two joined sheets 795 mm.; a magnificent red toki a now-endangered crane species three joined sheets 765 mm.; a large akowa tsuru another species of crane three joined sheets 815 mm.; a young white crane three joined sheets 935 mm.; a sea lion umiuso painted in many shades of delicate black two joined sheets 545 mm.; a carp two joined sheets 597 mm.; an octopus four joined sheets; a chameleon three joined sheets 844 mm. dated “1880”; a deer antler two sheets 545 mm.; a “Dutch” dog two sheets 545 mm.; a lion seen at exhibitions in Tokyo and Kyoto two sheets 640 mm. with a seal and note stating this was the work of “Ariyoshi” dated “1886“; and two camels two sheets 545 mm. long. Four of the paintings have the signature and seal of Yamamoto and another painting — the final — has the seal only. Three of the paintings have additional text by Yamamoto regarding where seen and painted alternative regional names date etc. Very fine condition preserved in a new wooden box. All but the penultimate painting are the work of Yamamoto. unknown
