Course Overview This course examines visual representations of travel culture of travel in pre-modern Japan, with a particular focus on the Edo period (1603-1867). The experience of and relationship with travel were diverse, influenced by factors such as class, status, occupation, gender, and nationality. For example, feudal loads, who were required to reside in Edo for a certain period, had to travel back and forth between Edo and their domains. For foreign envoys, such as those from the Ryukyu Kingdom and Korea, a visit to the Shogun in Edo held diplomatic significance; at the same time, it was an opportunity for the Shogunate to assert its supremacy over foreign countries. Shoguns and emperors made pilgrimages to Nikko Tōshōgū which enshrined the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate Tokugawa Ieyasu. While shoguns visited to pay homage and solidify their power, imperial visits indicated the court’s submission to the Shogunate. Travel was indispensable part of certain occupations, including traders, fishermen, itinerant religious practitioners, and street performers. Commoners actively journeyed for various purposes including sightseeing, pilgrimage, and medical treatment. Gender played a significant role in travel culture as women required special permission to pass through checkpoints and were excluded from various sacred spaces including well-known pilgrimage sites. Additionally, the afterlife experience was often described as a journey through the underworld to rebirth, with the deceased being dressed in travel attire. By exploring various forms of art inspired and developed in pre-modern travel culture, this course reveals multi-faceted aspects of travel and demonstrates its significance and meanings for diverse populations.
