Bibliographie – Livres en anglais

Livres en français | Livres en japonais | Top 9

La liste ci-dessous comporte un certain nombre de livres en anglais sur le Japon médiéval ou d’autres thèmes proches de ceux développés dans Tenga. Du fait de leur nombre, ils ne sont pas commentés mais juste référencés tels quels. À chacun de se faire sa propre idée ou d’aller voir sur la fiche en lien s’il se pose des questions sur l’intérêt d’un livre particulier. En effet, cette bibliographie a été accumulée de façon autodidacte et donc forcément un peu anarchique durant des années : la qualité et le public visé varie grandement d’un ouvrage à l’autre.
