Japanese historian Louis Perez brings Mikiso Hane's rich and
beloved account of early Japanese history up-to-date in this
thoroughly revised Second Edition of Premodern Japan. The text
traces the key developments of Japanese history in the premodern
period, including the establishment of the imperial dynasty, early
influences from China and Korea, the rise of the samurai class and
the establishment of feudalism, the culture and society of the long
Tokugawa period, the rise of Confucianism and Shinto nationalism,
and finally, the end of Tokugawa rule. While the text provides many
political developments through the early modern period, it also
integrates the social, cultural, and intellectual aspects of
Japanese history as well. Perez's updates to the text provide a
comprehensive overview of the major social, political, and
religious trends in premodern Japan as well as offering the most
current scholarship.
