Inhaltsangabe

Mostow (Japanese literature and visual culture, U. of British Columbia), Bryson (history and theory of art, U. College London, UK), and Graybill (senior curator of Asian art, U. of Michigan Museum of Art, US) present the results of a group research project dedicated to understanding representations of gender and sexuality from Japanese history, as well as the evolving historiography of such representations. The material ranges from medieval to modern topics, including 11 chapters discussing such topics as the image of women in battle scenes, the "westernization" of women's bodies during the Meiji period as a process of changing power, and the impact of the occupation of Korea on artistic images of women at the National Art Exhibitions.
