Descripción
Sumario:By 1816, Japan had recovered from the famines of the 1780s and moved beyond the political reforms of the 1790s. Despite persistent economic and social stresses, the country seemed to be approaching a new period of growth. The idea that the shogunate would not last forever was far from anyone's mind.

Buyō shows a familiarity with many corners of Edo life that one might not expect in a samurai.
