A Malleable Map: Geographies of Restoration in Central Japan, 1600-1912 - Asia: Local Studies / Global Themes
Karen Wigen
Probes regional cartography, choerography, and statecraft to redefine restoration (ishin) in modern Japanese history. This title argues that both the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1600-1868) and the reformers of the Meiji era (1868-1912) recruited the classical map to serve the cause of administrative reform.
