Promenades japonaises
by Emile Guimet
'Promenades japonaises' Summary
« Promenades japonaises » est le fruit d'un voyage en terre nippone entrepris par Émile Guimet et Félix Régamey. L'ouvrage, en deux tomes, se distingue par la variété des sujets abordés. On y trouve des descriptions des paysages grandioses, des portraits de la vie quotidienne dans les grandes villes et les campagnes, des analyses des religions et des traditions locales, des réflexions sur l'art et la culture. Guimet, passionné par l'Orient, met en avant la richesse et la complexité de la civilisation japonaise, sa beauté particulière, sa sophistication et son ouverture sur le monde. Le livre est également un témoignage précieux de la vie au Japon au tournant du XXe siècle, à une époque de transformation profonde du pays. Les illustrations de Félix Régamey, fidèles et expressives, ajoutent une dimension visuelle précieuse au récit de Guimet, rendant « Promenades japonaises » une source d'inspiration pour les amateurs d'art et de culture japonaise.Book Details
