While not a particularly happy topic, this is one of the best Japanese studies books I have read. Both the writing and the scholarship (based on primary sources) offer an excellent portrayal of women's position, prostitution and human trade in pre-modern Japan. A mcuh-needed antidote to the "floating world" hype produced by elite male authors in the Edo period. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

This book traces the social history of early modern Japan's sex trade, from its beginnings in seventeenth-century cities to its apotheosis in the nineteenth-century countryside. 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.
