Book Details


First Sentence

"This book discusses a central issue in the history of pre-modern Japanese religion, namely the idea that local, native deities (kami) are emanations of universal, Buddhist divinities - a notion known in Japanese as honji suijaku ("original forms of deities and their local traces")."
