85. International Gay & Lesbian Review -- Book Review
    Book review of this groundbreaking work on Japanese homosexuality by Gary Leupp, in the International Gay Lesbian Review.  
    http://www.usc.edu/isd/archives/oneigla/onepress/reviews/japanhomosexuality.html
    
    Extractions: Joseph R. Hawkins is a doctoral candidate at the University of Southern California in the department of anthropology. His dissertation will deal with homosexuality in modern Japan. Tokugawa Japan ranks with ancient Athens as a society that not only tolerated but positively celebrated male-male sexuality. Few scholars, however, have seriously studied the early modern Japanese homosexual tradition, sought to explain its origins, or explored how its particular conventions reflected class structure and gender roles in an especially dynamic preindustrial society. Male homosexual behavior in Tokugawa Japan rarely constituted an exclusive lifestyle; bisexual behavior was the norm. Leupp argues that although some men were exclusively homosexual, "nurture" (rather than "nature") factors contributed to the male-male sexual behavior that was so conspicuous in this society. These factors included the absence of women form monastic society and their scarcity in samurai society, skewed sex ratios in Tokugawa cities, and the culture surrounding kabuki theater and the associated world of male prostitution. Leupp's work is the first thoroughly to examine this homosexual tradition, to place it within a global context, and to explore its implications for contemporary debates on the historical construction of sexual desire. Drawing on his broad knowledge of Tokugawa social history and his familiarity with the primary sources, Leupp has produced a dispassionate and persuasive explanation for the prevalence of male bisexual behavior in early modern Japan.

88. The Prehistoric Society - Membership
    By Koji Mizoguchi. A book review.  
    http://www.ucl.ac.uk/prehistoric/reviews/03_02_mizoguchi.html
    
    Extractions: Koji Mizoguchi's book is a very different history of Japan to that we have read before. In common with a number of books on Japanese archaeology, by Japanese archaeologists, it is still a book about the nature of identity amongst the inhabitants of the Japanese archipelago. The study of identity may be recent and currently very much in vogue in Anglo-American archaeology (cf. Meskell 1999, Thomas 1996); but there is already a long tradition of writing about the nature of Japanese identity in Japan (and in Japanese). Some of these works, the so-called Nihonjin-ron and its critiques, seek to define a unique and particular identity shared by all Japanese. They trace this identity to its roots in the Japanese past, usually to be found with the introduction of rice agriculture by the Yayoi population from approximately 400 B.C. The island nature of Japan and the apparent contiguity between the political expression of previous populations and the current Japanese nation state have lent strong support to the notion of a fixed or inherent 'Japaneseness' that is missing from most other countries - except perhaps Britain.

    Extractions: A Roundtable with Industry Specialists from Shinsei Bank, Plaza Homes, Banner Japan and PLATINUM. Do you find yourself paying exorbitant rents every month? Ever thought about eventually owning a property in Japan? Have you ever encountered chancing upon your dream home and not being able to own it due to a lack of financing? Or for those of you already owning properties, ever thought about refinancing on better terms? If your answer to the questions above is YES, then the following event is something that you shouldn't be missing! More fun in the tub this week comes from Casio, who has introduced their "DV-900W" water-resistant DVD player with integrated 9" LCD screen. Casio didn't skimp on the features with this one. It not only offers an integrated TV tuner in case you get bored with your DVDs, but it features DVD+-R/RW compatibility for playing discs you've burned on your own, MP3/WMA playback, and even JPEG viewing. It also has an integrated Dolby Digital decoder and can downmix 5.1ch signals for 2ch use. It also for some reason has S-Video output and an optical digital output. Although these don't make a whole lot of sense considering most receivers and televisions aren't also waterproof, I guess they could come in handy if you want this unit to replace your standard DVD player.
