Showcasing moments of convergence between the German and Japanese cultures towards common points of interest over the last one hundred fifty years, the chapters in this book cover such topics as culture, diplomacy, geography, history, law, literature, philosophy, politics, and sports. From the creation of two similar modern nation-states, to the aggressive struggle for national supremacy and subsequent total defeat in 1945, the necessity of coping with their earlier militarism and parallel economic miracles in the postwar era, Germans and Japanese look back on a remarkably similar past.

“This volume surveys key moments in Japanese–German relations from the midnineteenth to the late twentieth century with richly informed materials from a variety of perspectives. … reviewer highly recommends this book to students and scholars interested in emerging fields of transnational studies and Asian German studies. The volume … prepares a readership for more specialized studies that may eventually develop compelling methodologies and concepts for the booming field of global history based on the archive of Asian German Studies.” (Chunjie Zhang, Monatshefte, Vol. 109 (3), 2017)
