Following in the footsteps of one’s family is never easy—especially when that family runs a traditional coppersmithing business in rural Japan. This is a tough lesson for Shuu, who must now decide whether to follow the path his father walked or find his own. But that’s not the only thing he must learn. A coppersmith must meet the expectations of their clients—and the clients themselves—something with which the reticent Shuu struggles. Somehow life has become more complicated than simply hammering away on copper. With his loving fiancée Shiina as his anchor, can the smithing nut rise to all the challenges his vocation presents?

Scholarship on premodern Japan has grown spectacularly over the past four decades, in both sophistication and volume. The new scholarship sees a higher reliance on primary documents, a shift away from the history of elites to broader exploration of social structures, and a reexamination of many of the key tenets which were once the received wisdom. Providing a primarily historiographical review, this handbook highlights the recent innovations and major themes that have developed in the study of premodern Japanese history. Covering Japanese history to 1600, The Routledge Handbook of Japanese History is an essential reference work for any student and researcher on Japanese, Asian and World History.
