Synopsis
New Japan, The Land Of The Rising Sun: Its Annals During The Past Twenty Years, Recording The Remarkable Progress Of The Japanese In Western Civilization by Samuel Mossman is a historical narrative of Japan's encounter with Western powers in the mid-19th century, detailing the opening of treaty ports and the modernization that followed. It covers Perry's expedition, the Kanagawa Treaty, and the subsequent negotiations with Britain, Russia, France, and the Netherlands. The account emphasizes how Japan's traditional dual governance—the Shogun in Edo and the Mikado in Kyoto—shaped diplomacy, while Western technologies such as railways, telegraphs, and ships spurred rapid modernization. It traces the gradual abolition of feudal control, the centralization of authority under the Mikado, and the reforms that laid groundwork for the Meiji state. The work also notes social and cultural shifts, economic reforms, and tensions arising from uneven reform across ports and provinces. Through a documentary-historical lens, it portrays Japan's emergence as a modern, treaty-based partner in the Western world.
