  • Trespasses

    Masao Miyoshi, Eric Cazdyn et al.BOOKTrespasses2010

    Trespasses presents key writings of the Tokyo-born literary scholar Masao Miyoshi, one of the most important postwar intellectuals to link culture with politics and a remarkable critical voice within the academy. For more than four decades, Miyoshi worked outside the mainstream, trespassing into new fields, making previously unseen connections, and upending naive assumptions. With an impeccable sense of when a topic or discussion had lost its cri…

  • The Culture of Japanese Fascism

    Open AccessAlan Tansman, Rey Chow et al.BOOKThe Culture of Japanese Fascism2009

    This bold collection of essays demonstrates the necessity of understanding fascism in cultural terms rather than only or even primarily in terms of political structures and events. Contributors from history, literature, film, art history, and anthropology describe a culture of fascism in Japan in the decades preceding the end of the Asia-Pacific War. In so doing, they challenge past scholarship, which has generally rejected descriptions of pre-19…

  • Japan’s Holy War

    Harry Harootunian, Walter Skya et al.BOOKJapan's Holy War2009

    Japan's Holy War reveals how a radical religious ideology drove the Japanese to imperial expansion and global war. Bringing to light a wealth of new information, Walter A. Skya demonstrates that whatever other motives the Japanese had for waging war in Asia and the Pacific, for many the war was the fulfillment of a religious mandate. In the early twentieth century, a fervent nationalism developed within State Shintō. This ultranationalism gained …

  • National History and the World of Nations

    C Larry Hill, Christopher Hill et al.BOOKNational History and the World of…2009

    Focusing on Japan, France, and the United States, Christopher L. Hill reveals how the writing of national history in the late nineteenth century made the reshaping of the world by capitalism and the nation-state seem natural and inevitable. The three countries, occupying widely different positions in the world, faced similar ideological challenges stemming from the rapidly changing geopolitical order and from domestic political upheavals: the Mei…

  • The Proletarian Gamble

    Ken C Kawashima, Ken Kawashima et al.BOOKProletarian Gamble2009

    Koreans constituted the largest colonial labor force in imperial Japan during the 1920s and 1930s. Caught between the Scylla of agricultural destitution in Korea and the Charybdis of industrial depression in Japan, migrant Korean peasants arrived on Japanese soil amid extreme instability in the labor and housing markets. In The Proletarian Gamble, Ken C. Kawashima maintains that contingent labor is a defining characteristic of capitalist commodit…

  • The University, the Universe, the World, and ?Globalization

    Masao MiyoshiARTICLEThe Global South2007Citada por: 1Referencias: 6

    This essay centers on the post-WWII decline of the humanities and a proposal for a radically reshaped organization of cultural knowledge and a project for social, environmental, and mental reformulation in the integrated world capitalism. The abandonment of the museum and the university may in itself be not a catastrophe. Yet the way today's scholars and writers of different kinds (in gender, ethnicity, class, and discipline) have ceased to talk …

  • Gender and National Literature

    Harry Harootunian, Tomiko Yoda et al.BOOKGender and National Literature2004Citada por: 7

    Boldly challenging traditional understandings of Heian literature, Tomiko Yoda reveals the connections between gender, nationalism, and cultural representation evident in prevailing interpretations of classic Heian texts. Renowned for the wealth and sophistication of women's writing, the literature of the Heian period (794–1192) has long been considered central to the Japanese literary canon and Japanese national identity. Yoda historicizes claim…

  • The New Japanese Woman

    Barbara Sato, Barbara Hamill Sato et al.BOOKNew Japanese Woman2003

    Presenting a vivid social history of “the new woman” who emerged in Japanese culture between the world wars, The New Japanese Woman shows how images of modern women burst into Japanese life in the midst of the urbanization, growth of the middle class, and explosion of consumerism resulting from the postwar economic boom, particularly in the 1920s. Barbara Sato analyzes the icons that came to represent the new urban femininity—the “modern girl,” t…

    Under globalization, the project of area studies and its relationship to the fields of cultural, ethnic, and gender studies has grown more complex and more in need of the rigorous reexamination that this volume and its distinguished contributors undertake. In the aftermath of World War II, area studies were created in large part to supply information on potential enemies of the United States. The essays in Learning Places argue, however, that the…

    The Flash of Capital analyzes the links between Japan’s capitalist history and its film history, illuminating what these connections reveal about film culture and everyday life in Japan. Looking at a hundred-year history of film and capitalism, Eric Cazdyn theorizes a cultural history that highlights the spaces where film and the nation transcend their customary borders—where culture and capital crisscross—and, in doing so, develops a new way of …
