|a Among the highlights of the East Asian section are four examples of Chinese ceramics, dating to the Northern Song, Qing and Ming dynasties, from the world-renowned collection built up by Sir Percival David (1892–1964). He also donated to SOAS Korean ceramics, such as a porcelain ‘moon jar’ and a set of miniature burial vessels. -- SOAS also possesses a wide range of East Asian rare books and manuscripts. -- A Japanese hand scroll painting of the mid-seventeenth century meticulously captures a procession of Korean ambassadors on their way to visit the Shogun in Edo. -- An early fourteenth century manuscript edition of a Japanese poetry anthology was elegantly brushed by hand, while a Chinese poetic commentary was block-printed by Zen monks in Kyoto in the late fourteenth century – the earliest printed book in the SOAS library. -- Other examples of woodblock printing include a rare surviving edition of the Japanese popular novel Bathhouse of the Floating World and an album of polychrome ukiyoe prints portraying Kabuki actors. -- Chinese prints record contemporary political events such as the Sino-Japanese War. |
