This accessible guide to the development of Japan's
indigenous religion from ancient times to the present day offers an
illuminating introduction to the myths, sites and rituals of kami
worship, and their role in Shinto's enduring religious
identity.
* Offers a unique new approach to Shinto history that combines
critical analysis with original research
* Examines key evolutionary moments in the long history of
Shinto, including the Meiji Revolution of 1868, and provides the
first critical history in English or Japanese of the Hie
shrine, one of the most important in all Japan
* Traces the development of various shrines, myths, and rituals
through history as uniquely diverse phenomena, exploring how and
when they merged into the modern notion of Shinto that exists in
Japan today
* Challenges the historic stereotype of Shinto as the unchanging,
all-defining core of Japanese culture
