Originally produced by The Great Courses in 2015.
Lasting for over 250 years, the Tokugawa shogunate curtailed both globalization and Christianity. How did this feudal government come to power? How did its policies isolate Japan? Along the way, you'll get an insightful look at what we really mean by "isolation," and how Japan was shaped by foreign cultures even when most Japanese were banned from traveling overseas.
