This index is divided into two sections: Author/Subject Index and Alphabetical List of Essay Titles. In both sections, names of the authors appear in plain text. Subject headings appear in boldface. The name of the author in the Alphabetical List of Essay Titles is in parentheses following the title, unless listed otherwise. The Impressions issue number is in boldface, followed by the year of publication and the first page number of the text. For example, Impressions 26 (2004): 23 is abbreviated 26 2004: 23.
Titles that begin with “A,” “An,” “The” and the like are alphabetized by the first descriptive word. For example: “The Functional Beauty of the Japanese Box (Johnson), 42 Part 1 2021: 37 is alphabetized under “F” for “Functional.” Titles of other works and words that are not part of the English lexicon are in italics in the index.
“Impressions of Japan” in citations refers to the short feature essays that conclude selected issues of Impressions.
The index will be updated with each new issue. Found a past article, essay or interview of interest? Order the back issue!
