Itou Junji no Neko Nikki: Yon & Mu

Ito J: Junji Itos Katzentagebuch

Junji Itos Katzentagebuch

The field of philosophical inquiry into consciousness has long been divided into analytical philosophy and phenomenology, often excluding non-Western traditions. Presenting a unique global perspective, Gereon Kopf makes the case for a new method to assess diverse approaches to the philosophy of mind and introduces a new definition of consciousness.
 
Drawing on various disciplines, Philosophy of Mind around the World engages with the conception of mind in relation to cognitive science, AI research, contemplative studies, philosophy of mind, phenomenology and global philosophy, including South and East Asian perspectives. Kopf not only considers First-Person and Third-Person approaches, but the Second-Person approach proposed by dialogical philosophy and the Fourth-Person approach implied by some Mahayana Buddhist thinkers and the Kyoto School.
 
Featuring a multiplicity of methods, Kopf's interdisciplinary examination explicitly challenges the Eurocentric paradigm and introduces a new fourfold theory of the mind, defined as intelligent, conscious, self-conscious and communal.

"In Japanese Cinema and Punk, Mark Player explores how the do-it-yourself ethos of punk empowered a new generation of Japanese filmmakers during a time of crisis and change for Japan's film industry. Analyzing key examples such as Burst City (1982), Robinson's Garden (1987) and Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989), he traces the changing sociocultural position of Japan's punk movement throughout the 1980s, from its euphoric early-80s highpoint to a growing dysphoria brought about by its co-opting and convergence by the mainstream"--

In Japanese Cinema and Punk, Mark Player examines how the do-it-yourself ethos of punk empowered a new generation of Japanese filmmakers during a period of crisis and change in Japan’s film industry.

Drawing on first-hand interviews with key figures from the jishu eiga (self-made film) tradition, including Ishii Gakuryu, Yamamoto Masashi, Tsukamoto Shin’ya, and Fukui Shozin, Player explores how punk's bricolage style was leveraged to create exciting intermedial film aesthetics. These aesthetics were influenced by punk rock, graffiti art, street performance, animation, and evolving music technologies.

By considering the practical, phenomenological, and political ramifications of blending diverse media elements, Player offers in-depth analyses of films such as Burst City (1982), Robinson’s Garden (1987), and Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989). He further traces the changing sociocultural position of Japan’s punk movement throughout the 1980s—from its euphoric early-80s peak to the growing disillusionment caused by its mainstream co-optation and convergence.

Momo Arashima Duels the Queen of Death

This second edition brings the definitive empirical work on Japanese youth fashion subcultures up-to-date for the 2020s, featuring three new chapters and essential updates in light of new fieldwork and globalized digital media. Based on in-depth ethnographic fieldwork in Tokyo and illustrated with striking color images, Fashioning Japanese Subcultures gives a unique insight into how and why subcultures evolve and what they mean to their members. Defined by style and urban district, subcultures such as Lolita in Harajuku, Gyaru and Gyaru-o in Shibuya, Age-jo in Shinjuku, and Mori Girl in Koenji, articulate identities, affiliations, and aspirations. Over the past 10 years social media has dramatically expanded the reach and impact of these cultural phenomena far beyond their traditional geographic groups, leading to worldwide adoption and adaptation. This second edition features three new chapters on the global impact of anime, manga and cosplay, global youth subcultures and '-cores' in cyberspace and social media, and understanding Japanese subcultures through neofeminist and cyber feminist frameworks. Exploring each subculture over the decade since the last edition, it also features new fieldwork across Tokyo, New York and social media platforms, updated coverage of Euro-American perspectives in light of advancements in postcolonial theory, and new methodological sections on cyberethnography and auto ethnography.

Fashioning Japanese Subcultures

Penguin Modern Classics

A writer is seized by apocalyptic visions; a voyeuristic marquis commits a brutal act; and a trio of beatniks dance to modern jazz in the ruins of an abandoned church. Here, stark autobiography contrasts with pure horror, and the tenderness of first love cedes to obsession, heartbreak and deathly beauty. A new selection of Mishima's short stories from the 1960s, Voices of the Fallen Heroes traces the final decade of Mishima's career and offers a unique glimpse into the mind of one of Japan's greatest writers. In the title story, a séance brings forth the spirits of young officers in the Imperial Army and the kamikaze pilots of the Second World War, who reproach the Emperor and mourn Japan's modern decline. In another, Mishima recounts the true story of the time a deranged fan broke into his home at dawn, insisting on meeting the author and imploring him to 'tell the truth'. Elsewhere, a beautiful youth achieves eternal life through violent murder, and an ill-matched couple seal their fate with a pack of cards, tangled in the web of time and unfulfilled desire. Available in English for the first time, and carefully selected by expert translators, these captivating stories are the perfect introduction to Mishima's work, on the 100th anniversary of his birth.

A compelling narrative of the largest land battle of its time, and the decisive engagement of the Russo-Japanese War.

A compelling narrative of the largest land battle of its time, and the decisive engagement of the Russo-Japanese War.

Mukden stands out as the most significant battle of the Russo-Japanese War. By February 1905, the conflict had reached its culmination, as Port Arthur had fallen to the Japanese after an epic six-month siege. Now free to mass all his field armies, Japanese commander Marshal Oyama shifted his focus to the Russian forces assembled around the city of Mukden. The Russians, led by General Kuropatkin and numbering over 300,000 men, had finally achieved sufficient strength to conduct their own offensive. A Russian victory would be vital to save both deteriorating morale in the army, as well as to reassure the home front. 

This fascinating work documents the decisive set-piece battle between the opposing sides on the plains of Manchuria. Maps, diagrams, battlescene artwork and period photos bring to life the brutal clash, the largest battle in history up to that point. Exploring the unabated fighting across a 40-mile-long front in the depths of winter, John Valitutto considers how effective the manoeuvring of each side was, the trench warfare that prefigured World War I, and the influence of machine guns and massed heavy artillery on the battle's outcome. Mukden made it clear to all that the conduct of war was changing, with new technologies and tactics demonstrating their terrible potential to the world.

'Enemy cities were pulverized or fried to a crisp. It was something they asked for and something they got.'In the closing months of the Second World War hundreds of thousands of Japanese, mostly civilians, died in a final outburst of violence from the air. American planes were beginning to run low on plausible targets when it was decided to use two atomic weapons in a final, terrible flourish to try to end the war. What place the firebombing and atomic bombs have in explaining Japan's surrender has remained a hot area of debate ever since. Richard Overy's remarkable new book rethinks how we should regard this last stage of the war and the role of the bombs. The popular view that bombing worked in this case has now to be set in a broader context of what was happening in Japan in the months before surrender. The easy equation 'bombing equals surrender' is no longer viable. This book explores the way in which the willingness to kill civilians and destroy cities became normalized in the course of a horrific war as moral concerns were blunted and scientists, airmen, and politicians endorsed a strategy of mass destruction they would never have endorsed before the war began, But it also engages with the new scholarship that shows how complex the effort to end the war was in Japan, where 'surrender' was entirely foreign to Japanese culture. This book puts together firebombing, atomic bombing, and the Japanese search for an end to the war into a single, striking narrative.
