Summary "When modern primary schools were first founded in Japan and Egypt in the 1870s, they did not teach art. By the middle of the twentieth century, art education was a permanent part of Japanese and Egyptian primary schooling. Both countries taught music and drawing, and wartime Japan also taught calligraphy. Why did art education become a core feature of schooling in societies as distant as Japan and Egypt, and how is aesthetics entangled with nationalism, colonialism, and empire"-- Provided by publisher
Contents The modern school as a global archive -- Music education and the uses of aesthetics -- Writing education and the location of aesthetics -- The mimetic moment : the age of global mimesis and representational mimesis -- The end of global mimesis : the rise of the national subject -- The end of representational mimesis: the rise of the individual subject
