By studying Japanese films and their associated literature, Tamae K. Prindle reveals
the covert stories of Japanese women versus orthodox history. Fifteen films bring
this theme into focus. "Mother," "Wife," "Prostitute," "Girl," and "Woman," represent
categories the public used to code Japanese women in the pre-feminist age. Each chapter
features three films depicting women in the premodern age, in the World War II period,
and in late twentieth-century Japan, and each embraces the three films within the
perspective of ecological feminism, sexuality, alienation, illusion, and power-over/power-to.
Shedding light on cultural, historical and/or ideological backgrounds of the films
under study in important new ways, this book breaks new ground in the study of women
in Japanese culture.--Adapted from page 4 of cover
