内容説明

This thorough and meticulous study of Japanese architecture is based on thirty years of field research by the architect and urban planner, Gunter Nitschke. A major anthropological survey, it traces the imperial, religious and domestic architecture in connection with the rituals and rites of Japanese society from Shinto to the modern day in the form of architecture by the renowned Tadao Ando. This collection of essays explores two threads of the evolution of Japanese architecture: the styles and the rituals which have perservered through the centuries, maintaining a traditional stronghold, and the styles and rituals which have adapted to the times and the influence of the Western world, whilst still employing a lesser degree of tradition. The focus of all the essays is upon the Japanese concept of space making and space understanding. Alongside this overriding theme, Nitschke investigates time, the element which complements space. Examines the work of Japan's leading architect, Tadao Ando. An anthropological study of space and time. A concise and fascinating history of Japan's architecture and rituals. A comparison of the architecture and society of the two leading nations of the world, America and Japan.
