A malleable map :: geographies of restoration in central Japan, 1600-1912 /

Kären Wigen probes regional cartography, chronography, and statecraft to redefine restoration (ishin) in modern Japanese history. As developed here, that term designates not the quick coup d'état of 1868 but a three-centuries-long project of rehabilitating an ancient map for modern purposes.
