Description

Explore the origins of ancient Japanese governance with this essential academic volume from the Durham East Asia Series. Published by Routledge, this book provides a comprehensive look at the emergence of a 4th-century ruling elite through the collected scholarly writings of Professor Barnes. This collection organizes diverse research into a coherent overview, addressing the complex problems and solutions found in early Japanese state formation. Unlike many other texts that focus strictly on cultural or historical aspects, these studies utilize an anthropological approach to examine the period. For many of the topics covered, these writings represent the only studies available in the English language. This makes the volume a necessary resource for students, researchers, and historians interested in the foundational structures of ancient Japan.
