Editor's Note:
I den japanska kulturen har alltid kontrasterna varit drivande. Denna kultur har ­fascinerat omvärlden i hundratals, om inte tusentals år. Men Japan är ett land som till stor del skapats av migranter inte minst under perioder av folk från Kina och koreanska halvön. Vare sig det rör sig om shintoismens heligaste platser, kalligrafins principer, bruksföremålens rustika skönhet eller vad konstnärerna och poeterna uttryckt i sina verk, finns i den japanska kulturen tydliga kontraster mellan det beständiga och det obeständiga, mellan de skönhetsideal som strävar efter perfektion och de som snarare understryker det meningslösa i att förneka tidens slitage, för att i stället göra konst av förgängligheter.Lars Vargö, diplomat och tidigare bland annat ambassadör i Japan, är en av Sveriges ledande Japan­kännare. Detta har han visat i en rad vederhäftiga böcker om landet. Han har även varit gästprofessor i Tokyo.
