{"product_id":"myths-and-legends-of-japan-frederick-hadland-davis-9781602063693","title":"Myths and Legends of Japan","description":"Nowadays Japan is seen as a modern and technologically innovative place, but in 1913, when Myths and Legends of Japan was first published, its culture seemed strange and exotic to the average Westerner. With this collection, F. Hadland Davis uses folklore to bring Japanese civilization to life and introduce this alien society to a Western audience. Davis arranges myths into 31 categories, including heroes and warriors, legends of Mount Fuji, animal legends, superstitions, and legends of the sea. Each chapter contains numerous examples of the genre, making for a volume packed with stories that will entertain both the Japan enthusiast and the mythology buff. FREDERICK HADLAND DAVIS is also the author of The Persian Mystics: Jalalu'd-Din Rumi (1907) and The Persian Mystics: Jami (1908), both available from Cosimo.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frederick Hadland Davis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1602063699\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781602063693\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cosimo Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.97d","brand":"Frederick Hadland Davis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465533706495,"sku":"9781602063693","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d0a54928-1558-4990-8430-9be00480285a.jpg?v=1736346529","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/myths-and-legends-of-japan-frederick-hadland-davis-9781602063693","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
