Description

Women, Rites, and Ritual Objects in Premodern Japan seeks to expand our understanding of the roles women played in rituals, how particular rituals were carried out, what types of implements or icons accompanied them, and how various ritual objects were used. Review ' Women, Rites, and Ritual Objects in Premodern Japan is an invaluable volume not just for scholars of premodern Japan but also for anyone with an interest in material culture. Whether we acknowledge this or not, it is largely through a carefully constructed symbolic order that we as human beings create and mark our places in the world and navigate our way through life and its many challenges.' - Yui Suzuki, University of Maryland, in: Monumenta Nipponica 74:1 (2019). 'a rare insight into the still largely veiled and thus lesser-known world of rites and rituals concerning women and female deities in premodern Japan.(...) serves therefore as an important pioneer in the field; hence, it is warmly recommended to all students of Japanese religions.' - Lehel Balogh, Hokkaido University, in: Religious Studies Review 45/3 (2019) About the Author Karen M. Gerhart, Ph.D. (1992), is Professor of Japanese Art History at the University of Pittsburgh. She has published monographs and articles on Japan, including The Eyes of Power: Art and Early Tokugawa Authority (1999) and The Material Culture of Death in Medieval Japan (2009).
