Honored and Dishonored Guests: Westerners in Wartime Japan
ISBN: 9780674975149 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych.

Japan’s Private Spheres: Autonomy in Japanese History, 1600-1930
ISBN: 9789004447547 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Japan’s Private Spheres: Autonomy in Japanese History, 1600-1930 traces the shifting nature of autonomy in early modern and modern Japan. In this far-reaching, interdisciplinary study, W. Puck Brecher explores the historical development of the private and its evolving relationship with public authority, a dynamic that evokes stereotypes about an alleged dearth of individual agency in Japanese society. It does so through a montage of case studies. For the early modern era, case studies examine peripheral living spaces, boyhood, and self-interrogation in the arts. For the modern period, they...
