SUMMARY:The Art of Literacy in Early Modern Japan
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 27\n1:00–3:00 p.m. PT\nSpeaker: Mai Yamaguchi\, Andrew W. Mellon Assistant Curator of Japanese and Korean Art at the Minneapolis Institute of Art\nVirtual Event \n  \nReading and writing were popular pastimes in early modern Japan. From the 1600s to the 1800s\, the printing industry developed rapidly\, making printed materials available to readers in urban and rural areas alike. Woodblock printing meant that books and prints could be mass produced\, sold cheaply\, and distributed widely. Readership grew steadily as temple schools taught basic reading and writing to people from the merchant and lower classes. This talk considers two forms of literacy\, textual and visual\, that enabled people to participate in a burgeoning public life and complements an exhibition of the same name on view until August 6\, 2023\, at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. \n  \nPlease note\, this session will be conducted virtually via Zoom. \nSave your spot by clicking on this link. All participants will be sent the Zoom link via confirmation email with instructions once you secure your place.\n \n  \nSave my spot!\n  \nSponsored by the Asian Arts Council. \n  \nFeatured at top right: Tsukioka Yoshitoshi\, I want to cancel my subscription (detail)\, 1878.
