Tradisional Technologies and Arts in Asia

1. 亚洲传统工艺是在本地区自然生态和社会环境的交融下形成的，在与西方现代工艺的直接接触和影响下发生了重大的历史变化。然而，尽管毫无疑问，亚洲的传统技术和工艺受到了这种方式的强烈影响，但这些海外实地调查的结果使我们得出了一个强有力的结论，即这些变化虽然在外部是明显的，但可以指出这些地区自然生态和民族社会重新适应的起点。1997年（FY）补充实地考察如下：在东亚地区，Niino教授对朝鲜半岛传统犁进行考察，服部教授对中国吉林省手工纸进行考察，Li教授对朝鲜半岛语言和民族进行考察；在东南亚，吉松教授讲述了缅甸穆斯林的饮食文化；在西亚，Hayashi教授研究地中海世界包括土耳其安纳托利亚半岛的铁和金属加工技术。其他的研究参与者集中精力收集所有的调查资料。研究的结果。首先，收集了有关亚洲传统工艺技术的文字资料、视听资料、生活艺术样品资料等，并进行分类整理，放入国际关系学院亚洲民族资料中心。我们相信这将对该领域未来的研究工作做出重大贡献，并且将这些原始材料提供给大学人口和公众将促进对国际文化的更深入了解。二是作为研究成果的中期报告，出版了两本书：《生态、技术和文化——寻找亚洲族群的体现》（Miraisha，东京，1998），以及a.j.g aisal的《印度对欧洲技术和文化的反应（公元1498-1707年）》（牛津大学出版社，1982年，平邦社，东京，1988年），作为基于未来海外研究目的的样本书面材料翻译的关于亚洲传统技术的三本系列书中的第一本。剩下的两本书计划每年出版一本，分别是A.Y.al-Hassan和Donald R.Hill的《伊斯兰技术》，剑桥大学出版社，1992年，以及II E Wulff的《波斯传统工艺》，麻省理工学院出版社，1996年。少

1. Traditional Asian technology and crafts, which developed indigenously by blending together that region's natural ecology and social enviroment, have experienced major historical changes based on their direct contact with and influenced by modern Wesern technology and crafts. Neverthless, although there can be no doubt that traditional Asian technology and crafts were strongly influenced in this way, the results of these overseas field surverys led us to the strong conclusion that the changes, while noticeable externally, cannoted the starting point for a readaptation of the natural ecologies and ethnic societies of those regions.2. In 1997 (FY), supplementary field surverys were carried out as follows : in East Asia, Professor Niino on the traditional plows of the Korean Peninsula, Professor Hattori on the hand-made paper of Jilin Province in Chana, and Professor Li on the languages and ethnic groups of the Korean Peninsula ; in Southeast Asia, Professor Yoshimatsu on the food-cultu … More re crafts of the muslim People in Myammar ; and in West Asia, Professor Hayashi on the iron and metal processing technology of the Mediterranean world including Anatolia Peninsula in Turkey. The other research participants concentrated on collecting all of the survey materials.3. Research results. First, the written materials, audio-visual materias, and sample lifestyle arts materials, etc., on traditional Asian technology and crafts were gathered, classified and placed into the Asian Ethnic Materials Center of the Faculty of International Relations. We belive that this will represent a significant contribution to future research efforts in this area, and that making these original materials available to both the university population and the general public will prpmote a deeper understanding of international culture.Second, as an interim report on research results, two books published : "Ecology, Technoilogy and Culture-In Search of the Embodiment of Asia's Ethic Groups" (Miraisha, Tokyo, 1998), and as the first in a series of three books on traditional Asian technology being translated based on the sample written materials for the purpose of future overseas research, A.J.Qaisal's "The Indian Response to European Technology and Culture (A.D.1498-1707)", Oxford Universty Press, 1982 (Heibonsha, Tokyo, 1988). The remaining two books, scheduled for publication one each on an annual basis, are A.Y.al-Hassan and Donald R.Hill's "Islamic Tecnology", Cambridge University Press, 1992, and II E Wulff's "the Traditional Crafts of Persia", THE M.I.T PRESS,1996.
