What To Say In Congratulatory Speech

The "erotic" and the image of women in Japan Picasso and modern shunga


I share here a link to an article published in the journal Current of the Universidad de los Andes, Venezuela, last year.
The paper explores aspects of the processes of import to Japan of Western concepts and terms related to sexuality, their relationships with Japanese power structures of the early twentieth century, and how they serve as a basis for the construction of an imaginary that is built from the representation of women as an icon than the "modern sexuality."
ARTICLE LINK
accompany this post with two pictures very illustrative of the display of the modern woman in Japan.
I'd love to hear your comments.
Hope you enjoy it.
