  • Mark Ravina. To Stand with the Nations of the World

    Open AccessAnne WalthallARTICLEThe American Historical Review2020

    For decades historians in Japan and around the world have tried to figure out how Japan evaded subordination to the Western great powers and at the same time transformed its government from a decentralized agrarian regime to a centralized industrializing state, without losing its soul. To deal with this conundrum, Mark Ravina pays due attention to foreign pressure, but never at the expense of accepting the argument that the United States somehow …

  • The Meiji Restoration Seen from English-speaking Countries

    Anne WalthallARTICLEJapanese Studies2018Referências: 4

    Marxism, modernization theory, diplomatic history, intellectual history, people’s history, women’s history – from 1950 to the present, historians in Japan and the English-speaking world have taken a variety of approaches to interpreting the causes and events leading up to the Meiji Restoration of 1868. Sometimes they have collaborated; other times they have talked past each other. This article surveys the major trends and offers a few cautionary …

  • Child’s Play

    Open AccessSabine Frühstück, Anne WalthallBOOKChild?s Play2017

    Few things make Japanese adults feel quite as anxious today as the phenomenon called the “child crisis.” Various media teem with intense debates about bullying in schools, child poverty, child suicides, violent crimes committed by children, the rise of socially withdrawn youngsters, and forceful moves by the government to introduce a more conservative educational curriculum. These issues have propelled Japan into the center of a set of global con…

  • Lust, Commerce, and Corruption

    Anne Walthall, Fumiko Miyazaki et al.BOOKLust, Commerce, and Corruption2014

    By 1816, Japan had recovered from the famines of the 1780s and moved beyond the political reforms of the 1790s. Despite persistent economic and social stresses, the country seemed to be approaching a new period of growth. The idea that the shogunate would not last forever was far from anyone's mind. Yet, in that year, an anonymous samurai author completed one of the most detailed critiques of Edo society known today. Writing as Buyō Inshi, “a ret…

  • Masturbation and Discourse on Female Sexual Practices in Early Modern Japan

    Open AccessAnne WalthallARTICLEGender & History2009Citada por: 2

    Much of the discourse on female sexual practices in early modern Japan centred on masturbation, usually with a dildo, deemed necessary for a woman's mental and physical health when the male member was unavailable. References to female same‐sex relations suggest that they too made sense in situations where men were absent. Some sex manuals treated female sexual arousal within the context of conjugal relations, while a text written for wives in pol…

    Author’s Introduction This essay argues that in our increasingly violent world, it is worth re‐examining the past to uncover the different forms violence can take. Japan provides a good case study because it combines extremes of violence in the service of aggressive war with the successful acquisition of a modern state, economy, society, and culture. The author of this piece suggests that a focus on Japanese women can illuminate the links between…

    We live in a world permeated with violence, yet until recently the field of Japanese studies has not focused on the connection between violence, gender, and modernity.

    IHAVE written this entire text without any sense of modesty or concern about being unduly outspoken. Let me explain why. People customarily humble themselves and seek to avoid appearing overly assertive, but when I came to this place, I resigned myself to my life being over at the age of thirty-five and resolved to regard the move here as the road of death, the journey to hell. Since the world no longer exists for me, it is as though I am no long…

    Anne Walthall, Shiba Goro et al.ARTICLEMonumenta Nipponica2000

    The Meiji Restoration of 1868 is most often seen as a glorious event marking the overthrow of Tokugawa feudalism and the beginning of Japan's modern transformation. Yet it had its dark side. The Aizu domain in northeastern Japan had staunchly supported the old regime. For this it was attacked by the new government's forces from Choshu and Satsuma in the autumn of 1868. Its castle town was burned to the ground, and during a month-long siege, whole…
