 note = {This introductory study considers the role of itinerant musicians and shamans in northern Tohoku, and the evolution of their relationship to local communities across the transition between Tokugawa and Meiji modernity. The analysis is framed by a methodological consideration of discourses of modernity, which privilege urban spaces and nationstate distributions of power; and an impulse to overcome the limitations of that point of view. It begins by parsing different aspects of modern subjectivities resulting from the hegemony of capitalist ideology, and then, pivoting around Harootunianʼs concept of temporal unevenness, turns to the topic of proliferating subjectivities in northern Tohoku. This latter part of the paper contextualizes the concept of mobility in Tokugawa Japan, before drawing on both native Japanese folklore studies and classic western sociology and anthropology to begin the work of theorizing the role of visually-impaired itinerants: itako, goze, and bosama. By juxtaposing the methodological critique and theorization of historical subjectivities, I take a small step toward imagining a practice producing alternative social ontologies.},
