\nThis is a completely revised edition of a bibliography of Japanese history up to the end of the Meiji period which Peter Kornicki compiled in 1996 and which was made available to interested parties in soft cover for a nominal fee. There is no copyright attached to it, and you may print it out or use it in any way you wish.<\/p>\n
\nVisualizing Cultures was launched at MIT in 2002 to explore the potential of the Web for developing innovative image-driven scholarship and learning. The VC mission is to use new technology and hitherto inaccessible visual materials to reconstruct the past as people of the time visualized the world (or imagined it to be). Topical units to date focus on Japan in the modern world and early-modern China. The thrust of these explorations extends beyond Asia per se, however, to address “culture” in much broader ways\u2014cultures of modernization, war and peace, consumerism, images of “Self” and “Others,” and so on.<\/p>\n
\nHenry Smith at Columbia has created an information-rich page with books, articles, syllabi, course materials, and bibliography resources for Japanese history and Japanese studies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
