NOTES ON RECENT READING
Jonathan E. Zwicker's KABUKI'S NINETEENTH CENTURY: STAGE AND PRINT IN EARLY MODERN EDO (2024)
By Samuel L. Leiter
My substantial review of this interesting but challenging new academic book will appear in the 2025 edition of Impressions: The Journal of the Japanese Art Society of America, edited by the redoubtable Julia Meech. Meanwhile, you can read a preview of the book here.
