Summary: A remarkable cross-cultural study
Comment: Europe through the Prism of Japan: Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries by Jacques Proust (Professor of History, University of Montpellier) is a careful, detailed, scholarly analysis of how Japan perceived Europe from the mid-sixteenth to eighteenth century. Japanese-European interactions during this era are expertly scrutinized, and range from encounters with Dutch merchants to Spanish Catholic missionaries, as well as the German and Portuguese Jesuits. A brief insert section of color plates with relevant works of art illustrates this remarkable cross-cultural study. Expertly translated into English by Elizabeth Bell, Europe Through The Prism Of Japan is a strongly recommended addition to East-West and Japan-Europe cultural history studies supplemental reading lists and academic reference collections.
