＼（Ｔ∇Ｔ）／ Welcome

Starting this blog felt like the best way to keep discovering and discussing aspects of the Bakumatsu (and Japanese history in general), monitor progress in my research and organise my head. In an ideal world, it should become of compendium of the infinite layers that make history.

I hope you enjoy reading about Japanese history and that you find something useful here.

About me:

Originally a librarian/archivist/documentalist from Switzerland

I love pottery, hiking, wine and books
