It has long been assumed that Japan's closed country policy meant that the country was isolated from the influence of the outside, and in particular, the western world.

Screech offers interpretations of 18th century thought through popular objects, and makes propositions which many scholars considered groundbreaking on the book's first publication in 1996. The conclusions reached here have yet to be substantially challenged. Read More Show Less
