Description

Explore the rich tapestry of early Japanese history with this thoroughly revised Second Edition of Premodern Japan by Routledge. Updated by Japanese historian Louis Perez, this comprehensive account traces pivotal developments across premodern Japan, from the establishment of the imperial dynasty through early influences from China and Korea, the rise of the samurai class and feudalism, the culture and society of the Tokugawa period, the emergence of Confucianism and Shinto nationalism, and the eventual end of Tokugawa rule. This historical survey provides essential context for understanding Japan's political, cultural, and social evolution during this formative era, offering students and history enthusiasts a detailed examination of the key forces that shaped the Japanese nation before the modern period.

Key Features

Premodern Japan covers the establishment of Japan's imperial dynasty and foundational governance structures in early history.

The Second Edition includes thoroughly revised content reflecting current scholarship on premodern Japanese history and society.

This Routledge text examines the rise of the samurai class and the development of feudalism across medieval Japan.

The book traces cultural developments during the Tokugawa period, one of Japan's longest and most distinctive historical eras.

Premodern Japan analyses the emergence of Confucianism and Shinto nationalism as intellectual and political forces.

The survey explores the decline of Tokugawa rule and its role in Japan's transition toward the modern period.
