    Jews in Suits: Men's Dress in Vienna, 1890-1938

    In modern Vienna, the Jewish men were the important participants in the cultural development and some of them were dressed themselves in ‘modern’ tailored suits. At the turn of the century, wearing suits became fashionable among the urban Jewish men and it also developed new models of Jewish identities beyond the externally prescribed notion of ‘the Jew’. Arisa is joined by Jonathan C. Kaplan-Wajselbaum, the author of an important academic book which is so rich in sources, Jews in Suits: Men's Dress in Vienna, 1890-1938 (2023) to talk about the dress culture of Jewish men in Vienna.

    The Splendour of Modernity: Japanese Arts of the Meiji Era

    The Meiji era (1868-1912) was a major turning point in Japanese history, moving from their long-lasted samurai feudal society to the new paradigm of a modern nation-state that was greatly influenced by Western scientific, technological and political ideas. Thus, Meiji Japan is often missunderstood as super-westernized, thus losing its traditional aesthetics in art and culture. Recently published The Splendour of Modernity: Japanese Arts of the Meiji Era (2024) challenges this common misconception by examining more than 200 artworks of the period between 1865 and 1915. Arisa is joined by the author of The Splendour of Modernity, Rosina Buckland and talks about Japanese art during this transformative period.

    "Effeminate" Characters in Japanese Postwar Films

    In Japan, since 1945, a lot of films were created in major studios and established a new pattern of Japanese cinema. Very interestingly, there were numbers of ‘effeminate characters’ that appeared in postwar films, showing unique expressions of Japanese ideas of sex and gender. Dr Kenta Kato, a Senior Assistant Professor at the School of Commerce, Meiji University, will discuss the issues not only around sexuality and gender identity, but also race, politics and nationalism of post-war Japan under the American occupation.
