- Double-weighted statement
- I would like my monograph 'Japan’s Castles: Citadels of Modernity in War and Peace' to be double-weighted. It is the first modern history of Japanese castles, covering more than 150 years from the 1860s to the present in a total of 140,000 words. My US-based co-author and I visited almost 100 sites and archives in Japan to gather material over the course of five years. I also visited sites and archives in more than a dozen countries, drawing on materials in Japanese, Chinese, English, German, and Dutch, and working collaboratively in different continents further complicated the research process.
