Drawing on legal codes, diaries, town registers, petitions, and criminal records, it describes how the work of "selling women" transformed communities across the archipelago. By focusing on the social implications of prostitutes' economic behavior, this study offers a new understanding of how and why women who work in the sex trade are marginalized. It also demonstrates how the patriarchal order of the early modern state was undermined by the emergence of the market economy, which changed the places of women in their households and the realm at large. 410 0$aAsia--local studies/global themes ;$v21. 606 $aProstitution$zJapan$xHistory 606 $aProstitutes$zJapan$xSocial conditions 606 $aWomen$xSexual behavior$zJapan$xHistory 606 $aSex$zJapan$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aProstitution$xHistory. 615 0$aProstitutes$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aWomen$xSexual behavior$xHistory. 615 0$aSex$xHistory. 676 $a306.740952 700 $aStanley$b Amy$f1978-$01053834 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461133803321 996 $aSelling women$92485962 997 $aUNINA
