Inhoud:

Melek Ortabasi reassesses the influence of Yanagita Kunio (1875â1962), a folk scholar and elite bureaucrat, in shaping modern Japanâs cultural identity. Only the second book-length English-language study of Yanagita, this book moves beyond his pioneering work in folk studies to reveal the full range of his contributions as a public intellectual.
