Historians have ignored the settled conditions of most samurai and instead concentrated on the study of the minority of activist samurai leaders who, with the backing of only a few Han (feudal domains) sought to overthrow the old order and whose success in doing so has made the study of the modernization of Japan the prime concern of historians. The history of the Meiji period may have been an overall political and industrial success story, but for a fuller understanding of the conditions of that success it is also necessary to understand "what it was really like" for the members of the old elite to be estranged from the proponents of revolution and what many members did to assure their own social and psychological position in a world they had not expected. In this book the author attempts to show that the impact of the Meiji Restoration destroyed the meaningfulness of the Confucian doctrine for these declasse samurai. Through Christianity, the samurai attempted to revive their status in society by finding a doctrine that offered a meaningful path to power. But in doing so, they had to accept a new theory of social relations. Ultimately, as the convert's understanding of society became totally informed by the Christian doctrine, they accepted a transcendent authority that brought them into conflict with society about them. Therefore, to understand the development of a Christian opposition in Meiji society we must begin with the conversion experience itself.Michigan classics in Japanese studies ;no. 24.Christian converts from ConfucianismJapanSamuraiReligious lifeJapanHistoryRestoration, 1853-1870Christian converts from ConfucianismSamuraiReligious life.305.6HIS000000HIS021000SOC000000bisacshScheiner Irwin639118MiUMiUBOOK9910416522203321Christian converts and social protest in Meiji Japan3084366UNINA05883nam 22006375 450 991025271480332120251030105718.09781137600929113760092610.1057/978-1-137-60092-9(CKB)4100000000587218(DE-He213)978-1-137-60092-9(MiAaPQ)EBC5042202(Perlego)3507484(MiAaPQ)EBC6237972(MiAaPQ)EBC29449542(EXLCZ)99410000000058721820170908d2017 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierInnovation in Language Learning and Teaching The Case of China /edited by Hayo Reinders, David Nunan, Bin Zou1st ed. 2017.London :Palgrave Macmillan UK :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2017.1 online resource (XII, 332 p. 8 illus., 1 illus. in color.)

Examining diverse experiences and drawing on the perspectives of academics from the top institutions in the country, the authors analyse the complex interplay between global and local influences on language policies. Encouraging discussion of the significant education reforms that have taken place in China in recent years, this work will be of interest to students and scholars of language education, English as a Second Language and applied linguistics.  Hayo Reinders is Professor of Education and Head of Department at Unitec, New Zealand, and Dean of the Graduate School at Anaheim University, USA.
