Description

Explore the complex relationship between modern Japanese culture and its history with this scholarly work from the Routledge Contemporary Japan Series. This book examines the significant rise in media representations of the recent past, a phenomenon that has captured the attention of critics and researchers alike. Through an analysis of films, animation, manga, and television, the text investigates the deep sense of nostalgia present in contemporary Japanese media. It specifically looks at the longing for the high economic growth periods of the 1960s and 1970s, known as the Showa 30s and 40s. By providing a comprehensive account of this under-researched trend, Hidaka offers valuable insights into why modern creators look back to previous decades. This book is an essential resource for anyone studying Japanese media, history, or the cultural impact of economic eras on storytelling.
