Writing Technology in Meiji Japan
Published by Harvard University, Asia Center, US, 2020
ISBN 10: 0674244494 ISBN 13: 9780674244498
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: New. Writing Technology in Meiji Japan boldly rethinks the origins of modern Japanese language, literature, and visual culture from the perspective of media history. Drawing upon methodological insights by Friedrich Kittler and extensive archival research, Seth Jacobowitz investigates a range of epistemic transformations in the Meiji era (1868-1912), from the rise of communication networks such as telegraph and post to debates over national language and script reform. He documents the changing discursive practices and conceptual constellations that reshaped the verbal, visual, and literary regimes from the Tokugawa era. These changes culminate in the discovery of a new vernacular literary style from the shorthand transcriptions of theatrical storytelling (rakugo) that was subsequently championed by major writers such as Masaoka Shiki and Natsume Soseki as the basis for a new mode of transparently objective, "transcriptive" realism. The birth of modern Japanese literature is thus located not only in shorthand alone, but within the emergent, multimedia channels that were arriving from the West. This book represents the first systematic study of the ways in which media and inscriptive technologies available in Japan at its threshold of modernization in the late nineteenth to early twentieth century shaped and brought into being modern Japanese literature.

The Hirabayashi Hatsunosuke Reader (Hardcover)
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, London, 2025
ISBN 10: 1350378151 ISBN 13: 9781350378155
Language: English
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This edited volume assembles a wide array of writings by Hirabayashi Hatsunosuke, one of 20th-century Japans foremost intellectuals, translated for the first time into English. It begins with an introduction by the editors, Seth Jacobowitz and Aaron William Moore, that contextualizes Hirabayashis significance as a non-doctrinaire Marxist cultural critic, visionary thinker, and much-beloved popular fiction writer. The Short Stories, features a selection of Hirabayashis literary work, including science fiction (The Artificial Human), detective fiction (This is How I Died!), and more idiosyncratic works such as Demon at the Pulpit, an antitheist and anticlerical story.The Essays provides a range of groundbreaking critical and theoretical tracts that address such topics as The Social Basis of Modernism, The Feminisation of Culture, Political Value and Artistic Value: A Re-Appraisal of Marxist Literary Theory, Film as a Mechanism of Americanization, The Technological Revolution in Literature and the Arts, and many more. Hirabayashis systematic approach to cultural theory befitting the era of massification in the 1920s places him front and centre in the hothouse intellectual climate of pre-war Japan. It also affords striking parallels to the leading thinkers in Europe such as Walter Benjamin and Antonio Gramsci, thereby forming an integral part of the history of global modernity. A much-needed English translation of writings by one of Japans major 20th-century cultural critics, Hirabayashi Hatsunosuke, supported by a wealth of critical essays covering key areas. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
