Transcultural trajectories of Germany and Japan during the Asia-Pacific War / Andrea Germer Summary The essays in this volume explore crucial intellectual and cultural exchanges between Asia and Europe in the first half of the twentieth century. Examining the increased mobility of people and information, scientific advances, global crises, and the unravelling of empires, Eurasian Encounters demonstrates that this time period saw an unprecedented increase in a transnational flow of politically and socially influential ideas. Together, the contributors show how the two ends of Eurasia interacted in artistic, academic, and religious spheres using new international and cosmopolitan approaches.-- Provided by publisher Analysis Transnational History, History of Art, Museums, Heritage, Decolonization Notes Proceedings of a conference held the Museum of Asian Civilizations in Singapore, 7-8 December 2012 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Dr. Carolien Stolte is an assistant professor of History at Leiden University, the Netherlands.
