Ancient Tales and Folk-lore of Japan
Richard Gordon Smith
Description
Ancient Tales and Folk-lore of Japan is a book by British traveler Richard Gordon Smith, first published in 1918. It is a collection of fifty-seven historical legends and folktales from Japan, where the author lived for some time in the early twentieth-century. Nearly all of the stories are set in a well-defined time and place, instead of 'once upon a time.' Themes include ghosts; unrequited love across social boundaries; Shinto landscape, tree and ocean spirits; and tales driven by Bushido and Buddhist ethics.
This edition does not include illustrations.
This book has 92,440 words, and was originally published in 1918.
