The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture de Jennifer Coates

The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture: Routledge Companions to Gender

Editat de Jennifer Coates, Lucy Fraser, Mark Pendleton
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 aug 2021
This Companion is a comprehensive examination of the varied ways in which gender issues manifest throughout culture in Japan, using a range of international perspectives to examine private and public constructions of identity, as well as gender- and sexuality-inflected cultural production.


The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture features both new work and updated accounts of classic scholarship, providing a go-to reference work for contemporary scholarship on gender in Japanese culture. The volume is interdisciplinary in scope, with chapters drawing from a range of perspectives, fields, and disciplines, including anthropology, art history, history, law, linguistics, literature, media and cultural studies, politics, and sociology. This reflects the fundamentally interdisciplinary nature of the dual focal points of this volume—gender and culture—and the ways in which these themes infuse a range of disciplines and subfields.


In this volume, Jennifer Coates, Lucy Fraser, and Mark Pendleton have brought together an essential guide to experiences of gender in Japanese culture today—perfect for students, scholars, and anyone else interested in Japan, culture, gender studies, and beyond.

Recenzii

"The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture is an unprecedented collection of new and updated accounts of original texts which constitutes the most comprehensive overview of both classic and contemporary scholarship in the field of gender and culture. This interdisciplinary-based volume analyzes the distribution of power across genders from all aspects of life in Japan and challenges us to re-examine the crossroads of culture and gender."
Hideko Abe, Chair and Professor, East Asian Studies, Colby College
"At last, a handbook on Japanese gender. And one which is both comprehensive and up-to-date in terms of coverage, methodology and theory. This should rightly go straight on to the reading lists of anyone teaching courses on contemporary Japan."
Roger Goodman, Nissan Professor of Japanese Studies, University of Oxford
"The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture offers a wide range of refreshing and critical perspectives on genders and Japanese culture. Particularly impressive is how this volume tackles the complex intersecting issues of gender, race, ethnicity, class, and others. It is informative, accessible, essential reading for anyone who wishes to have a comprehensive understanding of genders in Japan."
Kazue Harada, Assistant Professor of Japanese, Japanese Language and Culture, Miami University, Ohio
"The Routledge Companion to Gender and Japanese Culture is an important and useful resource with a broad scope of essays from accomplished scholars. This vital collection faithfully reflects the history of the field and paves the way for future research and pedagogy on gender and society in Japan."
Kathryn Hemmann, Assistant Professor, Japanese Literature and Popular Culture, George Mason University
