Nippon

Gedurende meer dan 200 jaar, om precies te zijn van 1641 tot 1854, was Japan vrijwel volledig afgesloten voor de westerse wereld. De man die als een van de eersten daar veranderingin bracht en fundamentele kennis ontsloot over dit land, alsook over het toen nog onbekende Verre Oosten, was de in Würzburg geboren arts Philipp Franz von Siebold (1796-1866). In de jaren 1823-1829 verbleef hij op het eilandje Deshima, de Nederlandse handelspost in Nagasaki, al die tijd het enige contact tussen Japan en het Westen. De ambitieuze Siebold werd vanuit het toenmalige Nederlands-Indië naar Japan uitgezonden met het verzoek zo veel mogelijk informatie te verzamelen over het land, de geografie, het volk, de religie, gebruiken en klederdrachten, om de Nederlandse handel te vergroten. In samenwerking met de Japanse kunstenaar Kawahara Keiga en vele anderen, onder wie Hokusai, begon hij aan een visueel en wetenschappelijk project dat zijn weerga niet kent: Nippon. Met deze publicatie over Nippon brengen we Siebolds levenswerk opnieuw tot leven om zijn Japan te kunnen begrijpen. Alle originele prenten worden opgenomen, de meest sprekende beelden uitgelicht en voorzien van commentaar. De inleiding gaat in op de unieke relatie tussen Nederland en Japan, Siebolds leven, zijn werk op Deshima en de historische betekenis van Nippon. De thematische essays en legenda's wijzen de lezer op markante details en verhalen, waardoor dit boek opnieuw beoogt te doen wat Siebold destijds ambieerde: de lezer verwonderen over de uitzonderlijke schoonheid van Japan..
