PHAIDRA – Digital collections

"Through the outcoming researches carried out by Italian and foreign scholars, the book series aims to become the ideal instrument to explore – with historical, social, cultural and economical approaches – the different cultures which entwine in contemporary Japanese society. Besides deepening those themes partially acknowledged by the Western audience, to a larger extent the analysis of cultural phenomena still meagerly examined will be emphasized, including the ones which emerge from this rapidly changing society.
