Sources of Japanese Tradition: 1600 to 2000 (Introduction to Asian Civilizations)
William Theodore de Bary, Carol Gluck, Donald Keene
Since it was first published more than forty years ago, Sources of Japanese Tradition,
Volume 2, has been considered the authoritative sourcebook for readers
and scholars interested in Japan from the eighteenth century to the
post-World War II period. Now greatly expanded to include the entire
twentieth century, and beginning in 1600, Sources of Japanese Tradition
presents writings from modern Japan's most important philosophers,
religious figures, writers, and political leaders. The volume also
offers extensive introductory essays and commentary to assist in
understanding the documents' historical setting and significance.
Wonderfully varied in its selections, this eagerly anticipated expanded
edition has revised many of the texts from the original edition and
added a great many not included or translated before. New additions
include documents on the postwar era, the importance of education in the
process of modernization, and women's issues.
Beginning with
documents from the founding of the Tokugawa shogunate, the collection's
essays, manifestos, religious tracts, political documents, and memoirs
reflect major Japanese religious, philosophical, social, and political
movements. Subjects covered include the spread of neo-Confucian and
Buddhist teachings, Japanese poetry and aesthetics, and the Meiji
Restoration. Other documents reflect the major political trends and
events of the period: the abolition of feudalism, agrarian reform, the
emergence of political parties and liberalism, and the Sino-Japanese and
Russo-Japanese wars. The collection also includes Western and Japanese
impressions of each other via Western religious missions and commercial
and cultural exchanges. These selections underscore Japanese and Western
apprehension of and fascination with each other.
As Japan
entered the twentieth century, new political and social
movements-Marxism, anarchism, socialism, feminism, and
nationalism-entered the national consciousness. Later readings in the
collection look at the buildup to war with the United States, military
defeat, and American occupation. Documents from the postwar period echo
Japan's struggle with its own history and its development as a
capitalist democracy.
