Hardcover. Zustand: New. xiv, 208 pages : illustrations : 24 cm. Summary:Crossing Cultural Boundaries in East Asia and Beyond explores the personal complexities and ambiguities, and the successes and failures, of crossing borders and boundaries. While the focus is on East Asia, it universalizes cultural anxieties with comparative cases in Russia and the United States. The authors primarily engage the individual experiences of border-crossing, rather than more typically those of political or social groups located at territorial boundaries. Drawing on those individual experiences, this volume presents an array of attempts to negotiate the discomforts of crossing personal borders, and attends to the intimate experiences of border crossers, whether they are traveling to an unfamiliar cultural location or encountering the "other" in local settings such as the classroom or the coffee shop. CONTENTS: Loss, liberation, and laughter : reimagining the Perry Mission in recent Japanese popular culture / Andrew Elliott Boundaries in the cross-cultural interaction of tourism : a comparative study of early English-language tourism guidebooks on Kyoto / Daniel Milne Seeking the ideal identity : cosmopolitanism advocated by Japanese Americans / Mariko Mizuno Rendering "a service" yet "infected with a foreignness" : the cross-cultural experiences of Rockefeller public health fellows from China and Japan in the interwar period / Darwin H.
