授業テーマ	Japanese visual culture has been formed through ceaseless negotiations with foreign ideas, technology and artistic creations. This course examines a variety of visual art produced in Japan from the prehistoric period to the present, paying particular attention to the global context of its creation. Roughly chronologically organized, each class explores issues such as the construction of “Japan-ness” in architecture and painting; the impact of transcultural faiths, namely Buddhism and Christianity; and the ramifications of modern technology.
授業のねらい・到達目標	The course aims to familiarize students with artworks, artistic mediums and the historical development of Japanese visual culture in order to critically interpret these in terms of both similarities and differences with the productions of other visual cultures.
授業の方法	Each session will consist of a lecture followed by a class discussion. One or two readings either in Japanese or English will be assigned every week and they are expected to be completed before each class meeting. Students are required to submit a short reaction note about the reading and lecture every week.
