Japanese Myths: From Kitsune and Yokai to The Ring and Naruto
19.99 €
An illustrated guide to the fantastic world of Japanese myths: summaries of key stories and an account of how Japanese mythology has changed over time. All over the world, people adore "exported" Japanese culture, from manga and anime to Zen philosophy. But not all of its fans are familiar with Japan's unique mythology, enriched by Shintoism, Buddhism and regional folklore. And it is mythology that has largely influenced modern Japanese culture. "Japanese Myths" is a concise guide to Japanese mythology, from the earliest recorded legends of Izanagi and Izanami and their divine descendants and the creation of Japan to medieval tales of vengeful ghosts and modern reincarnations of ancient deities as mecha-anime characters.
