The Human Tradition in Modern Japan is a collection of short
biographies of ordinary Japanese men and women, most of them
unknown outside their family and locality, whose lives collectively
span the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Their stories present
a counterweight to the prevailing stereotypes, providing students
with depictions of real people through the records they have
left-records that detail experiences and aspirations. The Human
Tradition in Modern Japan offers a human-scale perspective that
focuses on individuals, reconstitutes the meaning of people's
experiences as they lived through them, and puts a human face on
history. It skillfully bridges the divides between the sexes,
between the local and the national, and between rural and urban, as
well as spanning crucial moments in the history of modern Japan.
The Human Tradition in Modern Japan is an excellent resource for
courses on Japanese history, East Asian history, and peoples and
cultures of Japan.
