		An ideal locus for this essentializing telos was to be found in the Edo period, when the ruling Tokugawa shogunate closed the country – this is called sakoku - to most outside influence for security reasons, and kept Japan largely isolated and secerned from the world from 1620 to 1854.
		Iki read this way would be nomadically on the loose, irreparably disjunct from essence and propriety, freed from identitarian epistemologies favored by ethno-nationalism, and exposed in its jouissance to the Other.

		aesthetics (ĕsthĕt'ĭks), the branch of philosophy that is concerned with the nature of art and the criteria of artistic judgment.

	JAANUS / iki　いき
		The aesthetic ideal of the Edo merchant class during the late 18c and 19c, combining material sensuality and elegant sophistication.
		The Edo conception of iki grew out of sui, but altered it to suit the Edo taste, subduing the colour sense and adding a note of sensual appeal.
		Iki also has roots in the early and mid Edo-period ideal of *date だて, expressing much the same brash manner of the merchant class, the up-to-date sense of style, and lustful or decadent flair.
