AUTHOR

Harootunian, Harry D.

SUMMARY

This long-awaited work explores the place ofkokugaku(rendered here as "nativism") during Japan's Tokugawa period.Kokugaku, the sense of a distinct and sacred Japanese identity, appeared in the eighteenth century in reaction to the pervasive influence of Chinese culture on Japan. Against this influence, nativists sought a Japanese sense of difference grounded in folk tradition, agricultural values, and ancient Japanese religion. H. D. Harootunian treats nativism as a discourse and shows how it functioned ideologically in Tokugawa Japan.Harootunian, Harry D. is the author of 'Things Seen and Unseen Discourse and Ideology in Tokugawa Nativism', published 1988 under ISBN 9780226317076 and ISBN 0226317072.
