| 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 |
