Description

Explore the complex development of Japanese identity in Engaging the Other: 'Japan' and Its Alter-Egos, 1550-1850. Published as part of Brill's Japanese Studies Library, this scholarly work by Ronald P. Toby provides a deep look into how cultural and ethnic identity was shaped during the early modern period. This book examines how discourses of difference were expressed through various mediums, including literature, art, performance, law, and customs. By studying these elements, readers gain a better understanding of how these early interactions influenced the formation of Japanese national identity. It is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the social and cultural history of Japan between 1550 and 1850. This volume offers a detailed perspective on how the concept of the "other" helped define the boundaries of the Japanese self during a transformative era.
