About this product

Product Information

By studying Japanese films and their associated literature, this book reveals the covert stories of Japanese women of various statuses and time periods in an exegesis of their story versus orthodox history. Fifteen films are studied to bring this theme into focus. They are: Imamura Shohei's The Ballad of Narayama, Naruse Mikio's Mother, Idemitsu Mako's Great Mother, Kinugasa Teinousuke's Gate of Hell, Kurosawa Akira's No Regrets for Our Youth, Kuwabata Kagenobu's Love and Lie, Toyoda Shiro's The Mistress, Kumai Kei's Sandakan Brothel No. 8, Takahashi Banmei's A New Love in Tokyo, Nishikawa Katsumi's A Dancing Girl in Izu, Obayashi Nobuhiko's Chizuko's Younger Sister, Ichikawa Jun's Tsugumi, Mizoguchi Kenji's Life of Oharu, Itami Juzo's Tampopo, and Ishikawa Jun's Grass Fish on a Tree. The five chapters, Mother, Wife, Whore, Girl and Woman, represent categories the public used to code Japanese women in the pre-feminist age. Each chapter features three films depicting women in the pre-modern age, in the World War II period, and in late twentieth century Japan, and each embraces the three films within the thematic perspective of ecological feminism, sexuality, alienation, illusion, and power-over/power-to, respectively. The book sheds light on cultural, historical, and/or ideological backgrounds of the films under study in important new ways and breaks new ground in the study of women in Japanese culture.

    I bought it for my mum's birthday and she loves it. It has good information and images explaining things in excellent detail. It arrived well packaged and in new condition as advertised. Simplybestprices was the cheapest I found on the internet, so I went with them. The only negative was with the shipping, not the product. I ordered in Dec 2024 and it took many weeks before getting shipping details and then the delivery date kept changing and moving later. It eventuallly arrived early Feb.
