Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 2011.

It is convention, nowadays, to invoke religious proscriptions to support the fiction that Japanese became carnivorous only after Japan was opened to the West. In fact, the taboo on meat eating is a recent invention. My project traces the fabrication of the taboo by examining a changing system of relations among humans and certain animals between 1550 and 1900. It argues that the categories that structured the killing and eating of animals were twice reconstituted: once in the sixteenth century with the creation of the early modern order, and again in the nineteenth with the modern government's project for militarization and industrialization. At each juncture, economic and political instrumentality rather than cultural or religious prohibitions conditioned the species that were good to eat and good to forbid.
