Gary Leupp, professor, Japanese History, Tufts University
Review Japan’s history from the Heian period (794–1185) to the early modern period (1572–1868). Follow the transition from aristocratic rule to samurai dominance, and trace the emergence of a commoner class that produced its own lively art and literature in the 17th century.
