Puck Brecher, W. - Animal Care in Japanese Tradition: A Short History

Title: Animal Care in Japanese Tradition: A Short History
Description: Association for Asian Studies 2022 124, . 228x152mm. PB. NEW. . This volume provides an historical overview of Japan's relationship with animals from ancient times to the 1950s. Its analysis serves as a lens through which to scrutinize Japanese tradition and interrogate ahistorical claims about Japan’s culturally endemic empathy for the natural world. Departing from existing scholarship on the subject, the book also connects Japan’s much-maligned record of animal exploitation with its strong adherence to contextual, needs-based moral memory..
