Description

Explore the radical shifts of one of Japan's most significant cities with Kyoto Visual Culture in the Early Edo and Meiji Periods: The arts of reinvention. Part of the Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia series, this book addresses a gap in the field of Japanese history by examining Kyoto on its own terms as a historic city with a changing identity. This work investigates how Kyoto functioned as a political and cultural center, a hub for national bureaucracy, and a symbolic religious site. By looking at the production and display of art during two distinct periods of political transition, the text provides a deeper understanding of how the city reinvented itself. It is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of Japanese visual culture and the urban history of Kyoto.
