Beschreibung
This Collector’s Edition covers the history of Japan from prehistoric times to the end of the Heian period. Japan has captivated generations of readers with its spiritual and delicate myths, ghost stories and folktales, but its history offers much more to discover, from the veneration of Mount Fuji and long periods of isolation from other countries to the warring kingdoms and the emergence of the shogunates’ martial rule. It reveals the origins of the civilization that produced some of Japan’s most beautiful art and literature and shaped modern Japanese culture. The edition includes a new introduction and a glossary of terms or lists of ancient leaders, and forms part of a collection presenting the authors, myths, tales and history that laid the foundations of speculative fiction.
