''Jidaimono'' are [[kabuki]] or [[bunraku|jôruri]] plays which feature historical plots and characters, often famous samurai battles. These are in contrast to ''[[sewamono]]'' (世話物), contemporary plays, which generally focus on commoners and domestic issues. ''Jidaimono'' is usually translated as "period plays"; film and television productions in this mode are called ''[[jidaigeki]]'' (時代劇), and share much of the same basic features.
