A Companion to Japanese History

BLACKWELL COMPANIONS TO WORLD HISTORY

This series provides sophisticated and authoritative overviews of the scholarship that has shaped our current understanding

of the past. Each volume comprises between twenty-five and forty concise essays written by individual scholars within their

area of specialization. The aim of each contribution is to synthesize the current state of scholarship from a variety of

historical perspectives and to provide a statement on where the field is heading. The essays are written in a clear,

provocative, and lively manner, designed for an international audience of scholars, students and general readers. The

Blackwell Companions to World History is a cornerstone of Blackwell’s overarching Companions to History series

covering British, American, and European History.
