520    "This study of modern Japan engages the fields of art 
       history, literature, and cultural studies, seeking to 
       understand how the "beautiful woman" (bijin) emerged as a 
       symbol of Japanese culture during the Meiji period (1868-
       1912). With origins in the formative period of modern 
       Japanese art and aesthetics, the figure of the bijin 
       appeared across a broad range of visual and textual media:
       photographs, illustrations, prints, and literary works, as
       well as fictional, critical, and journalistic writing. It 
       eventually constituted a genre of painting called bijinga 
       (paintings of beauties). Aesthetic Life examines the 
       contributions of writers, artists, scholars, critics, 
       journalists, and politicians to the discussion of the 
       bijin and to the production of a national discourse on 
       standards of Japanese beauty and art. As Japan worked to 
       establish its place in the world, it actively presented 
       itself as an artistic nation based on these ideals of 
       feminine beauty. The book explores this exemplary figure 
       for modern Japanese aesthetics and analyzes how the 
       deceptively ordinary image of the beautiful Japanese woman
       --an iconic image that persists to this day--was 
       cultivated as a "national treasure," synonymous with 
       Japanese culture." -- Publisher's description.
