dc.description.abstractThis paper introduces Narrative Book Collection—a unique model of digi-tal exhibition for pre-modern Japanese books that explores computation-al and visualization approaches to create a new book reading experience in the digital age. Narrative Book Collection uses both verbal and nonver-bal aspects of books to enable distant and close reading, and reveals cul-tural features in a narrative format. This paper describes the process of design and implementation of a digital exhibition inspired in approx. 200 titles selected from an extensive collection of pre-modern Japanese books from the 8th to the 19th century, kept by Keio University’s Library and the Institute of Oriental Classics. The implementation of Narrative Book Col-lection provides practical and comprehensive insights of Japanese culture through pre-modern Japanese book collections, and opens a new door for digital exhibition of books.en
