Ghosts and the Japanese : : cultural experience in Japanese death legends / / by Michiko Iwasaka and Barre Toelken.
The Japanese have ambivalent attitudes toward death, deeply rooted in pre-Buddhist traditions. In this scholarly but accessible work, authors Iwasaka and Toelken show that everyday beliefs and customs--particularly death traditions--offer special insight into the living culture of Japan.
