Pre-modern The periods of Japanese history from the Azuchi-Momoyama are often referred to by names such as early modern, pre-modern, and proto-modern. What relevance do you think these terms have for the works you've witnessed in this unit and how are they understood in relation to the works from the previous units in the class? Formats Painting during the Pre-Modern era in Japan began to adopt new forms and modes of expression. What do you think are the reasons these new formats developed and how are they consistent/inconsistent with the methods borrowed from China? Architecture The period under consideration in this unit covers a wide range of structures from castles to tea houses to burial shrines. In each, form seems to follow function. However, there are many instances where the form of the structure does not seem to follow its function. What relevance does a 20th century idea such as "form should always follow function" have to these structures? What are some of the structural advantages of Japanese castle building? Why do tea houses look the way they do (Katsura is a teahouse)? What are the sources for Tokugawa's burial shrine at Nikko?

The terms "early modern," "pre-modern," and "proto-modern" describe the Azuchi-Momoyama period in Japan as a time of transition from traditional to new forms of art and culture. This era saw a blend of Japanese and Western influences, leading to diverse artistic expressions. In architecture, structures like castles, tea houses, and shrines often balance function and aesthetics, with tea houses particularly emphasizing simplicity and harmony. The Pre-Modern era's architecture and art reflect a mix of tradition and innovation, showcasing Japan's cultural evolution.
