Summary |
"Addresses the impact of war and war memory during Japan's 'samurai age,' the period of time lasting from the establishment of the first shogunate as a result of the Genpei War (1180-1185) through the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate in 1868. The volume offers studies of 'cultural imprints,' defined as cultural traces holding specifically grounded historical meanings that persist through time, including literary works, artifacts, performing arts, and documents that were created by or about the samurai"- Provided by publisher. |
