Through a series of stimulating case studies, this volume examines the political and cultural representations of Japan’s past, showing how they have reinforced personal and collective narratives while also formulating new cultural meanings, both on a local scale and in the context of transnational media production and consumption. Drawing upon diverse disciplinary insights and methodologies, these studies collectively offer a nuanced account in which mass media function as much more than a simple ideological tool.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1785339591\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"uzg8gl-9dy510-tye4c4-6r4tz1\" data-cel-widget=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1785339591\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"hfuvmi-i7j6j0-vb1h5s-svxpxq\" data-cel-widget=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"tellAmazon\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"tellAmazon\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1785339591\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"k2vs77-6rnqg2-441aub-xedx7l\" data-cel-widget=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"celwidget c-f\" data-csa-op-log-render=\"\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"DsUnknown\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"DsUnknown-4\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-painter=\"tell-amazon-desktop-cards\" data-csa-c-id=\"ufu1w5-rswet6-4t4o35-9symmp\" data-cel-widget=\"tell-amazon-desktop_DetailPage_3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"CardInstanceT-vViZlwg37LxBWo6Ja9AA\" data-card-metrics-id=\"tell-amazon-desktop_DetailPage_3\" data-acp-tracking=\"{}\" data-mix-claimed=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ingram Book Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52254835605735,"sku":"Japan","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/3680\/9959\/files\/81pRt1OFe4L._SL1500.jpg?v=1782503701","url":"https:\/\/jfbooks.org\/products\/9781836956624","provider":"JF Books | 季風書園","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
