Description
An illustrated guide to the fantastic world of Japanese myths: retelling the stories and exploring how Japanese mythology has changed over time, as new gods, heroes, and spirits have entered the canon.
Description
Many modern fans of Japanese film, anime, manga, literature and popular music thrill to the images of gods and monsters in the shrouded valleys and craggy peaks of the islands. Yet few in the West understand the long history of Japanese mythology that underpins them. Frydman explores the tapestry of religion, philosophy, imperial propaganda and regional folklore, and considers their place within Japanese religions, culture, and history. -- adapted from jacket
