DESCRIPTION Japanese Art and Culture Book Yokai Manga (Traditional Illustrations of Ghost, Monsters, Poltergeists of Japanese Lore) "Yokai" refers to ghosts, apparitions, poltergeists, and/or departed spirits. Due to their popular appeal, Yokai illustrations, known as Yokai-Ga, are an enduring and easily recognized genre of Japanese art history. Enjoyed by the common people of Japan since ancient times, Yokai-ga have been valued for their intimate associations with the beliefs and folk traditions that are associated with the native culture and religion of Japan. They are often depicted in a playfully comic and satiric light. This book offers a fresh look at this distinctive facet of Japanese art, culture, and lore. Very generously illustrated with reproductions.
