The deeply Buddhist Kenji's imaginative d?wa (children?s tales) are among the most frequently illustrated in Japan today. Numerous internationally renowned artists such as Munakata Shik?, Kim Tschang-Yeul and Lee Ufan have represented his stories in an array of intriguing visual styles, reinvigorating them as picture books for modern audiences. Focusing on some of Kenji?s most famous narratives, the author analyses the ways artists respond to the stories? metaphysical philosophies, exploring the interaction of literature, art and culture. Miyazawa Kenji and His Illustrators is richly depicted with full colour images of the representations of Kenji?s work, making the book a valuable resource on how illustrations shape story, and how these picture books continue to convey the texts? witty and ironic messages more deeply than the written word alone. 410 0$aJapanese visual culture ;$vv. 7. 606 $aIllustration of books$zJapan$y20th century 606 $aChildren's literature, Japanese$vIllustrations 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aBuddhism in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIllustration of books 615 0$aChildren's literature, Japanese 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aBuddhism in literature. 676 $a895.6/344 700 $aKilpatrick$b Helen$0860795 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463657503321 996 $aMiyazawa Kenji and his illustrators$91920964 997 $aUNINA
