Utilizing never explored original sources and with a unique focus on the persons involved, Michael Wachutka elucidates how kokugaku as a cornucopia of traditional knowledge played an important role in raising a new generation of truly national citizens. Commonly perceived as a purely premodern Edo-period phenomenon, 'national learning' counterbalanced an overly Westernization of society in the process of nation building and identity formation. In addition to kokugaku activities in religious administration and higher education, Wachutka provides a compelling account of the organization and endeavour of three successive academic societies whose most prominent members served as junction of kokugaku’s intellectual network in Meiji Japan.KokugakuHistoryShinto and stateHistoryReligion and stateJapanNationalismJapanHistoryUniversities and collegesJapanLearned institutions and societiesJapanJapanIntellectual lifeElectronic books.KokugakuHistory.Shinto and stateHistory.Religion and stateNationalismHistory.Universities and collegesLearned institutions and societies299.5/617509034Wachutka Michael889564MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462348803321Kokugaku in Meiji-period Japan1987148UNINA
