National Enlightenment: the Source of the Rise of the Japanese Empire
by Ma Guochuan
About This Novel
From the time the "black ships" of the United States were closed in 1853 to the death of Emperor Meiji in 1912, Japan took 60 years to rise from a backward country to one of the world's powerful countries, creating a unique model for the rise of great powers in modern world history, and becoming the envy and imitation of many catch-up countries. By describing the important historical figures and major historical events of this period, this book vividly records Japan's difficult journey of catching up and building a modern country over the past 60 years. It also analyzes the internal reasons why Japan later embarked on the path of militarism. For countries pursuing the "rise of a great power", the path Japan has taken still has strong practical significance.
