  The dawn of the 20th century in Japan witnessed the rise of a peculiar problem: the Woman Problem. This book focuses on this female image as it was debated in popular newspapers and magazines in the 1910s as well as on the lives of a specific group of women - members of the feminist literary organization known as the Seitosha.
