Wow, look what just arrived. A completely new publication on networks (書き下ろし, it says in the conclusion) in medieval Japan with a focus on documents, records, and especially sacred works. Nagamura is a leading archivist and brilliant scholar. The book will be officially released on January 1, 2025.
