Transnationalizing Culture of Japan in Asia

This volume is an attempt to tackle the topic of transnationalization of Japanese culture in Asia in the domains of drama, music, and the arts. Along the way, the contributors generate questions as they develop the themes of the hybrid and the reactionary, the localizing and accommodating in film and art, even nostalgia for a place that--imagined by strangers and outsiders--becomes a landscape and at once a performance stage.
