Kurzfassung:
The volume Japonisme in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy was dedicated to the celebration of the 150th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Japan and the countries which used to belong to Austria-Hungary, conducted by the Museum of Fine Arts - Ferenc Hopp Museum of Asiatic Arts in Budapest. Representatives of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and Japan signed the Treaty of Navigation, Commerce and Friendship in Tokyo on 18 October 1869, which had an impact on international policy between the parties, facilitated the development of trade and enhanced cultural transfer. Although the Monarchy disintegrated into many successor states in 1918, the predilection for Japanese art and culture remained an important part of the common cultural history of East-Central Europe. This volume aims to present the recognition and appreciation of Japanese culture as something new and inspiring for the people but mostly for artists in the region.The present volume is the fruit of a three-year-long collaborative project of Japonisme experts from countries which once formed the Dual Monarchy. The seventeen academic contributions are divided into four thematic segments. A New Acquaintance introduces the reader to the historical, political, cultural milieu of the inception of Japonisme in East-Central Europe - which was as special for the young Monarchy as it was for the newly restored Japanese Empire. Part Two, Travelling Artworks, concentrates on the reception, collecting and interpretation of Japanese works of art in Central Europe. The third unit, Artists and Artworks, discusses classic themes of Japonisme, such as painting, graphic arts, ceramics, glassmaking, and theatrical arts with a twist. Catalysts of Japonisme, the last segment concentrates on the cultural, political, social phenomena and ambience in Central Europe, which provided a fertile ground to the embracing of Japan, its culture and made citizens of the Monarchy more open to new impulses arriving from the East than ever before.
