Japan's Postwar: Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies

Editat de Michael Lucken Traducere de J. a. a. Stockwin Editat de Anne Bayard-Sakai, Emmanuel Lozerand
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 sep 2011
Historical surveys of postwar Japan are usually established on the grounds that the era is already over, interpreting "postwar" to be the years directly proceeding World War II. However, the contributors to this book take a unique approach to the concept of the postwar epoch and treat it as a network of historical time frames from the modern period, and connect these time capsules to the war to which they are inextricably linked. The books strength is in its very interdisciplinary approach to examining postwar Japan and as such it includes chapters centred on subjects as diverse as politics, poetry, philosophy, economics and art which serve to fill the blanks in the collective cultural memory that historical narratives leave behind.
Originally published in French, this new translation offers the English speaking world important access to a major work on Japan which has been greatly enriched by the translator’s great accuracy and knowledge of English, French and Japanese language, history and culture.
Japan's Postwar will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese Studies and Modern Japanese History as well as historians studying the world after 1945.

Recenzii

"Arthur Stockwin deserves commendation on his fine and eminently readable translation of the volume from the original French... The authors represented here enrich our knowledge on a number of fronts by drawing links between war and after, and thereby suggest different understandings and approaches of how to conceptualise and periodise postwar Japan." - Erik Ropers, Towson University; Japanese Studies (Australia), vol. 32, no. 4, December 2012.

Descriere

Historical surveys of postwar Japan are usually established on the grounds that the era is already over, interpreting "postwar" to be the years directly proceeding World War II. However, the contributors to this book take a unique approach to the concept of the postwar period and treat it as a network of historical time periods from the contemporary period, connecting these time capsules to the war to which they are inextricably linked. The book also takes a very interdisciplinary approach to examining post-war Japan and includes chapters centred around subjects as diverse as politics, poetry, philosophy, economics and art which serve to fill the blanks in the collective cultural memory that historical narratives leave behind. As such Japan's Post-War will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese Studies and Modern Japanese History as well as historians studying the world after 1945.
