| 摘要 | Earnest Francisco Fenollosa (1853-1908), came to Japan (1878-1890) as a visiting professor of western philosophy at Tokyo University and later became a Commissioner of the Imperial Household of Fine Arts in Japan. The unique conditions in Japan in the 1880s virtually forced Fenollosa to think about the historical significance of his activities. As a social scientist, Fenollosa had a deep understanding of cultural and social differences in values, attitudes, and sociological studies. Fenollosa's scientific modern approach and valuable researches were significant because they moved away from old stereotyped approaches to methodological considerations in art and art history; and his scholarly works were not yet affected by the emerging nationalistic fascists' policy of using scholarship as a political instrument. Fenollosa was the first Western scholar to think genuinely of non-Western cultures and to have a sympathetic regard for their distinctive patterns of development. In fact, Fenollosa's arrival marked a new stage in American Exploration of the Orient. After his return to the U.S. his life-long proclamation of a forthcoming fusion of Eastern and Western art, furthermore, a synthesized art and culture will occur in the United States. Fenollosa's role and contribution in the United States was as a pioneer scholar of Far Eastern studies. In spite of all these priceless contributions, there were limitations of scholarship in Fenollosa's Far Eastern art history. Since Fenollosa's time there has been serious study from the modern perspective of Far Eastern art history. However, it is said that modern scholarship of Sinology, is primarily seem through Japanese eyes since their scholarship in Far East was more advanced than other countries. Thus, Western perspectives on the Far East have been mainly based on sources of Japanese scholarship for the past century. If so, it is about time to review Western scholar's views and urge them to take a modern perspective on Far Eastern art and cultural history. I believe the study of Fenollosa would be valuable not only for Far Eastern scholarship but would have a salutary affect on the attitudes of the future scholars toward the humanities. Fenollosa's activities in the Far East and later in the U.S. were genuinely dedicated to building a two-way bridge across the Pacific. |
