Abstract: The volume includes essays on ancient and modern Japan elaborated from the papers presented at the 43rd Conference on Japanese Studies organised by AISTUGIA - the Italian Association for Japanese Studies, held at the University of Naples L’Orientale from September 26 to 28, 2019. The volume provides a comprehensive overview of the theoretical perspectives of the speakers in their respective research fields, which range from classical, modern, and contemporary literature to performing arts, linguistics, archaeology, history, law, and politics. Often, the themes of one field intertwine with other areas: for example, food becomes an economic and political issue, medicine a matter of historical analysis, and literature serves as a tool for analysing social issues. The possibility for research fields to transcend rigid and artificial disciplinary boundaries is a crucial aspect highlighted in this volume.
