Constructing the Tokugawa Spatial Imaginary: Kaibara Ekiken and His Revival of Fudoki n

Original language description

This chapter reappraises a mode of ‘travel writing’ developed by the early-modern Japanese scholar Kaibara Ekiken (1630-1714). Ekiken’s writings about space and topography, which I shall call his ‘spatial’ writings, went well beyond the existing literary genre of travel literature. By drawing on the antiquarian style of fudoki, his writings obtained a cultural and thus a political legitimacy making them fundamentally different from other contemporary travel literature, including travel diaries and traditional famous-place writings
