Modern Passings: Death Rites, Politics, and Social Change in Imperial Japan - Studies of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University
Andrew Bernstein
Following an overview of the early development of funerary rituals in Japan, this work demonstrates how diverse premodern practices from different regions and social strata were homogenized with those generated by middle-class city dwellers. It also explores the conflict-filled process of remaking burial practices.
