Mirror of a Young Man's Ambition/Self-Improvement. ????? ?????
Tokyo Daikokuya Matsumoto Heikichi ??? ???? 1901 Première édition. Magnifique livre-dépliant (??, orihon) illustré de gravures sur bois coloriées à la main, intitulé ????? (Danshi Risshi Kagami). Le terme « risshi » (l'idéal d'amélioration personnelle et d'ambition pour les jeunes hommes) était un concept important de l'ère Meiji. Il comporte douze illustrations sur double page retraçant le parcours d'un jeune homme à travers la vie. De ses amis d'enfance, à son éducation, en passant par la cour et le rejet, la rencontre avec un homme d'affaires occidental et une visite chez un prêteur sur gages. À une extrémité du leporello se trouvent des pages de garde, à l'autre, un catalogue des livres pliants colorés publiés par Matsumoto Heikichi. 17 cm x 11,5 cm. Les plats d'origine recouverts de soie sont quelque peu frottés et légèrement tachés. Le livre a été protégé par un nouvel étui à rabats muni de fermoirs en os japonais et d'une étiquette sur la couverture (bien que, curieusement, celle-ci ait été laissée vierge). Un magnifique exemple d'impression coloriée à la main de l'ère Meiji. Les illustrations montrent la transition de la culture japonaise traditionnelle vers la modernité. Le mélange de la vie traditionnelle et occidentalisée de l'ère Meiji en fait un document social véritablement intéressant ainsi qu'une uvre d'art. ?????? Meiji 34 (1901). Miyagawa Shuntei (????, 18731914). Il signait ses uvres Shuntei Gyoshi ou Shuntei Kanjin, ce qui signifie littéralement « homme de loisirs ». C'était un graveur sur bois de l'époque Meiji qui a vécu la majeure partie de sa vie à Tokyo. L'uvre de Shuntei offrait un aperçu de la vie quotidienne des familles aisées de cette période.
First edition. A beautiful hand coloured woodblock print folding leporello (??, orihon), ????? (Danshi Risshi Kagami) The term "risshi" (the ideal of self-improvement and ambition for young men) was an important Meiji-era concept. With twelve double page illustrations showing the progress of a young man through life. From his childhood friends, education, courtship and rejection, meeting a western businessman, and a visit to a pawnbroker. To one end of the leporello are end papers, to the other, a catalogue of Matsumoto Heikichi's published coloured folding books. 17cm x 11.5cm. The original silk covered boards are somewhat rubbed and a little stained. The book has been protected with a new portfolio case with japanese bone clasps and a label to the cover (although curiously, this has been left blank). A beautiful example of Meiji era hand coloured printing. The illustrations show the transition from traditional Japanese culture to modernity. the mix of traditional and Westernised Meiji life make this a genuinely interesting social document as well as a work of art. ?????? Meiji 34 (1901). Miyagawa Shuntei (????, 18731914). He signed his work Shuntei Gyoshi or Shuntei Kanjin, literally meaning "man of leisure." He was a Meiji-period woodblock print artist who lived most of his life in Tokyo. Shuntei's work offered a glimpse into the daily lives of affluent families during this period. It is tempting to make comparisons between Shutentei's "Mirror" and Hogarth's "A Rake's progress." Both chart the journey of a young man through life, but whilst Tom Rakewell is an example of dissolution and held up as a cautionary tale, the young man in the "Mirror" is far more of a good example to follow. .
Proiskhozhdenie chelovieska i polovoi podbor [i.e. English ""Descent of Man""]. - [FIRST TRANSLATION OF DARWIN'S 'DESCENT OF MAN' INTO ANY LANGUAGE]
S.-Peterburg, Izdanie redaktsii zhurnala ""Znanie, 1871. 8vo. In contemporary black half calf with four rasied bands and gilt lettering to spine. Corners of binding with repairs and a three cm long tear to lower front hindge. Light miscolouring throughout, especially to first 10 leaves. (2), VII, (6), 439 pp.
The exceedingly rare first Russian translation of Darwin's 'Descent of Man' published only four month after the original English. The Russian publisher was eager to have a translation published, hence this early abridged edition - two other Russian translations followed later the same year - The present translation being the very first into any language. ""The Descent of Man showed that the process of organic evolution, propelled by the struggle for existence and natural selection, applied to man no less than to the rest of the animal kingdom. It gave explicit recognition to the idea of the anthropoid origin of man. This claim surprised no one, for it was clearly hinted at in the great work of 1859 and was elaborated in Thomas Huxley's Man's Place in Nature and Vogt's Lectures on Man. Nor was it much of a surprise when three Russian translations of The Descent appeared within one year after the publication of the English original. Two general ideas represented the essence of The Descent: natural selection is not only behind the physical survival of man but also behind the evolution of cultural values"" and the differences between animal and human behavior are differences of degree rather than of kind."" (Darwin in Russian Thought) ""The Expression helped lay the foundations for a scientific study of the psychological aspect of the evolution of species. The book appeared in a Russian translation only a few months after the publication of the English original. The paleontologist Vladimir Kovalevskii was the translator, and the embryologist Aleksandr Kovalevskii was in charge of editorial tasks. In 1874 Vladimir wrote to Darwin that nearly two thousand copies of the Russian translation were sold."" "" The Expression deals much more extensively with selected aspects of human and animal behavior than with general problems of evolutionary biology. The Russian reviewers were generally impressed with Darwin's descriptions and categorizations of animal behavior. The Journal of the Ministry of Public Education was unusually profuse in praising the book's content and writing style. The reviewer commended Darwin's impartiality and avoidance of ""materialistic trappings."" Even the adherents of spiritualism could read the book, he wrote, without the least discomfort. The reviewer thought that psychologists would benefit from the information the book presented on the ""physiological"" basis of behavior. Indeed, he recommended the book to all readers interested in the scientific foundations of human behavior. The liberal journal Knowledgewas equally laudatory. It noted that the book was eminently successful on two counts: it offered a ""rational explanation"" of many expressions of human emotions, and it integrated the study of animal and human behavior into the universal process of organic evolution. In fact, no educated person could afford to ignore it.N. P. Vagner, professor of zoology and comparative anatomy at St. Petersburg University, called The Expression a book with ""great strengths and minor flaws."" The volume reminded him of Darwin's previous works, which marked ""turning points in the history of science."" The strength of the book lay much more in its suggestion of new topics for comparative-psychological research than in a presentation of a theoretically and logically integrated system of scientific thought. Insufficient exploration of the physiological underpinnings of mental activities represented the book's major shortcoming"" (Darwin in Russian Thought) In Russia Darwinism had a profound influence not only upon the different sciences, but also on philosophy, economic and political thought, and the great literature of the period. For instance, both Tolstoy and Dostoevsky referenced Darwin in their most important works, as did numerous other thinkers of the period.Like Strakhov, however, Dostoevsky, acknowledging the significance of the ""Origin of Species"", saw the dangers of the theory. In the same year as the publication of Rachinsky's translation, he lets the narrator in ""Notes from Underground"" (1864) launch his attack on Darwinism , beginning: ""As soon as they prove you, for instance, that you are descended from a monkey, then it's no use scowling, you just have to accept it.""In ""Crime and Punishment"" (two years later, 1866) the Darwinian overtones inherent in Raskolnikov's theory of the extraordinary man are unmistakable. He describes the mechanism of ""natural selection,"" where, according to the laws of nature, by the crossing of races and types, a ""genius"" would eventually emerge. In general, Darwinian themes and Darwin's name occur in many contexts in a large number of Dostoevsky's works.'Descent of Man' was transted into Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian and Swedish in Darwin's lifetime. Freeman 1107.
