The Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Minoan civilizations may have earlier beginnings, but none of these has survived as a motivating force in modern times. In even the most advanced present~day arts of China, Korea, and Japan the lineage is quite apparent, and it goes as far back as the Neolithic cultures that flourished in those areas while the Great Pyramids of Egypt were still new and Stonehenge had not yet been built. Professor Munsterberg of the State University of New York (New Paltz) has made a lifelong study of the arts of Eastern Asia and has written and lectured widely on the subject in Japan, Europe, and the United States. In this admirable survey he condenses the whole history of those arts, showing how forms and techniques originated and developed; how Korea acted as a bridge in the transmission of ideas from China to Japan; how outside influences, particularly the introduction of Buddhism from India, affected and transformed the arts throughout the area; and how each of the three national regions, while influencing and being influenced by the others, created its own individual expression. Inevitably, it is the art of ceramics that dominates the story, for it is here that the Far Eastern artistic genius has always excelled. But the splendid array of illustrations presented in this book ~ most of them in color, and painstakingly assembled from public and private collections all over the world ~cover the whole range of artistic endeavor and are, in themselves, proof enough of the incomparable and continuing skill of the Oriental artist in such diverse fields as ornamental bronze~work, narrative~scroll painting, and landscape gardening. This is undoubtedly one of the best introductions to Oriental art available in English.
