Publisher Synopsis
Art and Palace Politics in Early Modern Japan is a beautiful produced volume, the second in Brill's Japanese Visual Culture series. Copiously illustrated in color, its plates are inserted throughout the book close to the relevant text rather than placed in a separate section. Its thorough and scholarly treatment of diverse topics relevant to the intersection of politics and elite culture during a vital period of Japan's history make the volume an extremely valuable resource for all students and scholars of Japan. - Journal of Japanese Studies 40:1 (2014) Read more...
