Provincial Life and the Military in
Imperial Japan
, this book uses
provincial newspapers and local records to hear the voices of ordinary people
living in imperial Japan through several decades of war and peace. These
voices reveal the authentic experiences, opinions and emotions of men,
women and children. They show that the impression of a uniquely disciplined,
regimented, militaristic society, which took root in the Western imagination
from the 1890s and which helped bring about the Paci
‘
nation of samurai
’
c war of 1941 45, is a
gross illusion.
Stewart Lone challenges the long-standing view of prewar Japan as a
society. Instead of relying on the usual accounts about senior
commanders and politics at the heart of government, he shows the realities of
provincial society
militaristic
’
s relations with the military in Japan at ground level.
Working from the perspective of civil society and both rural and urban life in
the provinces, Lone investigates broader civil contacts with the military
including schools, local businesses, leisure and entertainment, civic cere-
monies and monuments, as well as public attitudes towards the military and
its values.
This book will be of interest to upper undergraduates, postgraduates and
academics interested in military history and Japanese history.
