About the Book
This volume examines Japanese textile traditions as material culture, situating techniques such as weaving, dyeing, embroidery, and resist methods within their historical, regional, and social contexts.
The book approaches textiles not merely as decorative objects, but as carriers of knowledge, labor systems, symbolic meaning, and regional identity, tracing continuities and transformations across periods.
