Description

Explore a unique perspective on Japanese history with this academic work from Routledge. While many historical accounts focus on the role of women as dutiful collaborators in the imperial ideology of "good wives, wise mothers," this book looks at those who lived on the margins. By analyzing materials from literature and film, the text examines the lives of women who did not or could not conform to the expectations of male-led empire-building. This research provides a necessary look at groups that have been overlooked in traditional narratives. It examines the experiences of sex workers, women entertainers, hostesses, and hibakusha. For students, historians, and researchers interested in film history, literature, and gender studies, this book offers a way to understand the fragmented history of the Japanese Empire through the lens of its most marginalized female figures.
