In this first general study of the Japanese imperial institution throughout its history, Peter Martin brings together inaccessible material, much of it available only in Japanese. He surveys the history and political and religious status of the monarchy of Japan from its mythological origins to our own times.
|
In his presentation of case studies of household division as it operated in Qing-dynasty Taiwan and Republican era North China, Wakefield determines that equal division was the rule, yet living parents and single siblings had property rights as well.

Part one of this book is a detailed study of Buddhism in his Xia state during its formative stage. It describes the role of Buddhism as a legitimizing factor in the context of a political history based on a multitude of sources. Part two is a most meticulous study of the famous 1094 inscriptions in Liangzhou and the temple and whose precincts the stele has been erected.
|
Lionized by imperial loyalists from the 1850s to 1945 for his biting critique of the Tokugawa political system and his supposed advocacy of the restoration of imperial rule, he has been transformed in the eyes of some postwar Japanese interpreters into a precocious advocate of modern modes of political activism,erected.
