Kyoto in Transition: An Imperial City Redefined in the Meiji and Taishō Periods
Alice Tseng
What is an imperial city in the context of modern Japan? What are the architectural and urbanistic attributes of a modern Japanese imperial city? Which Japanese city is the imperial city? Can there be more than one imperial city in a nation at a time? These are the main questions that frame my teaching-discussion sessions. The focus will be on Kyoto, and the main concern is with the urbanscape and surrounding scenic-scape of this historic city in a period of great political, technological, and cultural transitions. The transitions under investigation are manifold, although two main determinants of modern imperial Kyoto would be the non-resident emperor and the greater Japanese empire in the making.
