Description

This is an examination of the attitudes, ideals and myths of Japanese imperialism as represented in its film culture. Baskett traces the development of Japanese film culture from its unapologetically colonial roots in Taiwan and Korea to less obvious manifestations of empire, such as the markets of Manchuria.
