About This Novel
"East and West in Japanese History" is the early masterpiece of the famous Japanese medieval history scholar Yoshihiko Amino. In this book, Amino adopts the research perspective of regional history for the first time, and based on the theories of archaeology, sociology, folklore, cultural anthropology and other disciplines, he examines the differences in life and culture of people living in the eastern and western parts of the Japanese archipelago and their impact in history. He not only talked about interesting historical topics such as East Horse and West Ship, mounted archer warriors and pirate warriors, East Shogun Nishi Junyu, Genji and Heiji, but also made enlightening discussions on important concepts such as the social structure of the eastern and western regions, the relationship between political mechanics, Eastern culture and Western culture, and fundamentally rethought "Japanese theory" and "Japanese history theory."
