A comprehensive study of changing political thought during the
Tokugawa period, the book traces the philosophical roots of
Japanese modernization. Professor Maruyama describes the role of
Sorai Confucianism and Norinaga Shintoism in breaking the stagnant
confines of Chu Hsi Confucianism, the underlying political
philosophy of the Tokugawa feudal state. He shows how the new
schools of thought created an intellectual climate in which the
ideas and practices of modernization could thrive. Originally
published in 1975. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
