The Shogun's Painted Culture Fear and Creativity in the Japanese States, 1760-1829
- Binding: Paperback

Description:
The Shogun's Painted Culture analyzes Japanese culture prior to contact with Europe. Japan's ruling elite used an "iconography of absence" to portray themselves as, literally, unseeable. As European contact increased, Matsudaira Sadanobu, the Shogun's chief minister during this period, sought to codify Japanese culture before it was overwhelmed. Sadanobu was so successful, Screech argues, that he can be thought of as defining Japanese culture as we know it today.
