Japanese folklore and Yokai: Yurei, ghost stories in Japan
$21.57
There is no shortage of ghost stories in Japan! Between the ghosts that haunt houses and the spirits that frighten passers-by, the Yurei form a specific category of Japanese folklore. The Yokai of this type make it possible to educate the children, certainly, but they also bring explanations on what there is after death.The Yurei participate in the cultural richness of Japan, as much through fear as through compassion. Each story features a specific situation that participates in the Japanese Shinto and Buddhist traditions.Contrary to what one might think, ghosts are not necessarily evil: in many cases a Yurei is a grieving soul.Through this book, discover various stories that have marked Japan and mentalities. Learn more about Japanese spirituality, the relationship of the living with the dead and the afterlife according to the Japanese people.
