This dissertation is a biographical account of Kakuzo Okakura (1862-1913), a Japanese art and cultural critic who served as an adviser and a curator of the department of Japanese and Chinese art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, from 1903 to 1913. Its main purposes are to analyze Okakura's aesthetic views, as revealed in his The Book of Tea and several lectures he delivered both in Japan and the United States, and to illuminate Okakura's aesthetic and cultural affinities with those of the Boston Brahmins. Special attention is paid to his relationship with the art critic Ernest Fenollosa, the artist John La Farge, and with Isabella Stewart Gardner, a connoisseur and collector.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation is a biographical account of Kakuzo Okakura (1862-1913), a Japanese art and cultural critic who served as an adviser and a curator of the department of Japanese and Chinese art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, from 1903 to 1913. Its main purposes are to analyze Okakura's aesthetic views, as revealed in his The Book of Tea and several lectures he delivered both in Japan and the United States, and to illuminate Okakura's aesthetic and cultural affinities with those of the Boston Brahmins. Special attention is paid to his relationship with the art critic Ernest Fenollosa, the artist John La Farge, and with Isabella Stewart Gardner, a connoisseur and collector.
520 $a The dissertation addresses a number of questions. Why was Okakura able to find a sympathetic response for his aesthetic ideals, and for his interest in preserving traditional Japanese culture among the Boston Brahmins? What were the aesthetic and cultural ideals which Okakura and the Boston Brahmins shared?
520 $a After a close examination of the Okakura's materials, we find, first, that Okakura's art theory is idealistic and religious in a sense he stressed the importance of maintaining religious idealism in art rather than holding the view that art simply reflects the reality of life. Second, his view is aristocratic. The more he idealized the mission of the artist as divine, the greater the distance between the artist and the public who normally cannot appreciate such a divine work of art. Yet his art theory was democratic in a sense he found beauty among the simple features and facts of every day life rather than in complex and expensive productive. Third, Okakura applied an evolutionary theory to his art theory, believing that art should develop according to social circumstances, but without neglecting historical factors.
520 $a Okakura's aesthetic idealism, which is based on Zen and Taoist philosophy, is compatible with the theory of evolution. For the Boston Brahmins, who were faced with the loss of religious faith due to Darwin's theory and the rise of mass culture, Okakura's brand of idealism was particularly attractive.
