Paperback. Condition: new. Spencer, Dean (illustrator). Paperback. Shinto is the native religious tradition of Japan. This book describes the way that Shinto is practised today, in the early 21st century, focusing on its ceremonies, called matsuri, and sacred spaces, known as jinja, and also discusses three individual jinja in some detail: Jingu at Ise, arguably the most sacred site in Shinto, Yasukuni Jinja in Tokyo, clearly the most controversial, and Shirahata Hachiman Daijin, a "typical" jinja in Kawasaki. Other chapters cover Shinto theology, Shinto's history and place in contemporary Japanese society, and a discussion of the famous myth of Amaterasu Omikami and the cave of heaven.
