Shirane and Suzuki examine how the Japanese canon of “classics” (The Tale of Genji
, The Tale of the Heike
, Noh drama, Saikaku, Chikamatsu, and Basho) was constructed as part of the creation of Japan as a modern nation-state and as a result of Western influence.
Developed from an international symposium titled "Canon Formation: Gender, Nationalism, and Japanese Literature" held in March 1997 at Columbia University, this volume presents ten original essays addressing the process of the construction of Japanese literature. Topics include the construction of imperial mythology; gender and courtliness in ; Chikamatsu and dramatic literature in the Meiji period; and curriculum and competing canons. Annotation c.
