Review Lars Tunbjörk: Home / Steidl/Hasselblad Center:

After his earlier series on leisure time and the world of office labor, Lars Tunbjark returned to his childhood neighborhood to photograph his mother's house. The experience intrigued him, and he continued shooting in similar areas around Sweden. Saturated with other people's personal memories, his photographs convey the peculiar atmosphere of silence familiar in middle-class housing districts, not only in Sweden but in other countries as well. If on the surface his images purport to investigate the private domestic realm in terms of architecture, home decorating styles, and garden culture, as seen in Sweden during the latest two decades, under these multiple, quiet surfaces they reveal apocalyptically more. Home is the final book in a trilogy, following Country beside Itself and Office.

Review Japanese Propaganda: Selected Readings; Books 1872-1943 (Japanese Propaganda) (Japanese Propagana) / Global Oriental:

Given today's heightened interest in the role and processes of propaganda in global realpolitik, the arrival of this first major collection of English-language writings on Japan and international ambitions in the modern period - a source long neglected by historians and social scientists alike - is both timely and relevant. Most books on Japan published in English between Meiji and the Pacific War can be divided between those with an explanatory purpose and those with a more critical focus. In the West, in the early years of the 20th century, explanatory books and fiction on Japan, especially those by Japanese authors, enjoyed a wide readership. A number of these "explanatory" volumes were propagandist in intent and by definition. However, as books about Japan with a more Western outlook came into vogue, the earlier volumes were gradually superseded by new works, written by Western writers and journalists, many of whom were subsidized by the Japanese government. In 1921, on the eve of the Washington Conference, Japan established a propaganda bureau within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and contracted with Western authors based in East Asia and elsewhere to support and contribute to her international agenda. A selection of the fruits of these and earlier endeavours has been brought together in this collection. "Japanese Propaganda - Selected Readings" stands as a record of Japan's responses to international criticism and of her sustained effort to win international favour during the stormiest years of her modern history. With a foreword from Uchikawa Yoshimi, the dean of Japanese media historians, a comprehensive introduction by Series Editor, Peter O'Connor, and scholarly introductions to each volume, "Japanese Propaganda - Selected Readings" provides a rich resource for all students of Japan's modern drive for international acceptance, and of her pre-war retreat into national victimhood and institutionalized mysticism.

Review Jozef Israels: 1824Ö1911 / B.V. Waanders Uitgeverji:

Jozef Isra‘ls (1824-1911), famous for his portrayals of life in Holland's fishing villages and of scenes from Jewish and peasant life, was the Žminence grise of the Hague School. Contemporaries saw him as a latter day Rembrandt, whose art gave his subjects a voice. This representative and extensive survey of his life and work marks the 175th anniversary of Isra‘ls's birth. Over one hundred paintings, watercolors, drawings, and etchings are illustrated in color and discussed. Many of these works, drawn from public and private collections in Holland and abroad, have not been exhibited for years. The introductory essays focus on Isra‘ls's career and artistic development, his affinity with Rembrandt, and his Jewish background.
